It means that fetch had previously downloaded a portion of the file in question, but for some reason did not complete the download. When it attemps to resume the download it is now complaining that the remote file has been modified since the local file was originally fetched, so it cannot resume the download. The reason why fetch doesn't do the obvious here and simply delete the local file and start over is something I can't answer, but it doesn't. It skips that download site and moves on. > Since it starts to become clear to me that I will not be able to simply > portupgrade, I tried a radical approach: > > cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix > make distclean This was actually the correct fix. You cleaned out whatever partially downloaded file fetch was complaining about, so that the next time you ran portupgrade it was able to re-download the entire file cleanly. Alternately you could have simply done: rm /usr/ports/distfiles/postfix-2.2.5-vda.patch.gz which is a good first step whenever there is an odd fetch error. -- -- Mike Still using IE?
