It seems that it's Ok, I confused (konqueror lied me) soft and hard
linked files, (which I ignored the existence till today, nor I
understand yet why those hard links are useful).
# cd /usr/ports/packages/i386/cdrom
# ls -i kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
890218 kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
# cd /usr/ports/packages/i386/all
# ls -i kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
890218 kde-i18n-nl-3.5.9.tgz
#
So both have the same inode # 890218 (it's like that?), so I am
understanding that they are the same file, not twice space used on my
hard drive.
I am right?
Mac.

Besides this, as I mentioned also in my previous thread, instead of
linking the newly created packages from /usr/ports/packages/i386/all/
to /usr/ports/packages/i386/ftp/ and to /usr/ports/packages/i386/cdrom/
, as the stdout says above, it creates copies of the file in each
folder.
either something is seriously broken on your system, or you should
read ln(1) about different types of links.
