make MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=http://www.cdrom.com/pub/tex/ctan/systems/unix/teTeX/distrib/sources/ will grab the files more quickly than the default of ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/comp/tex/teTeX/distrib/sources/ at least for me at this instant in time. Gotta love fetch's http ability. Usually this doesn't matter, but for 7M I don't want 800cps over a 3kcps. I want 3kcps :-) The more I use the port makefile system, the more I like it. Oh, I noticed there was no port for xv. Is this intentional? Warner
