Hi all,
At some point after my original installation of v.7-BETA3 in late
November and a subsquent upgrade to BETA4 with Colin Percival's
freebsd-update, installing packages remotely with pkg_add on my system
broke. For example:
$ sudo pkg_add -vr rtorrent
scheme: [ftp]
user: []
password: []
host: [ftp.freebsd.org]
port: [0]
document: [/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-current/Latest/rtorrent.tbz]
--- ftp.freebsd.org:21
looking up ftp.freebsd.org

Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-current/Latest/rtorrent.tbz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-current/Latest/rtorrent.tbz'
by URL
pkg_add: 1 package addition(s) failed
Now, I *know* the package and host are online; I can copy and paste
the URL from the screen to grab it with wget:
wget
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-current/Latest/rtorrent.tbz
This works.
What could be going wrong with add_pkg here?
As I indicate above, I am currently at 7.0-BETA4
Thanks.
