You can point pkg_add to the stable packages with the PACKAGESITE environme= nt=20 variable (takes a complete URL), so it will fetch them when invoked with -r= =2E=20 You can also point pkg_add to a mirrorsite of ftp.freebsd.org with either t= he=20 PACKAGESITE or the PACKAGEROOT environment variable, see the pkg_add manpag= e=20 for more information. =2D-=20 ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | lofi@freebsd.org (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org --nextPart1561447.nPbbjZoN9x Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCZnVgXhc68WspdLARAqyvAJ0dg93jHU0cYz5ECQ87wm/fZs0BoACfa/uI R8+L70mSsbMIOScsQ5+vkoA= =8Hef -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1561447.nPbbjZoN9x--
