From the Makefile for modula-3, DISTNAME= modula-3-3.6 CATEGORIES= lang DISTFILES= MAINTAINER= jdp@polstra.com DEPENDS= ${PORTSDIR}/lang/modula-3-lib We can see there are no DISTFILES for it. Look like this port is a 'front-end' of sorts for the modula-3-lib. If you type, 'make' rather than just 'make fetch,' it will start to grab things, % make ===> Extracting for modula-3-3.6 ===> modula-3-3.6 depends on: /usr/ports/lang/modula-3-lib ===> Verifying install for /usr/ports/lang/modula-3-lib >> m3-fbsd-src-3.6.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system. >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/LOCAL_PORTS/. -- Crist J.
