I am currently using FreeBSD 2.2.8, and have made no update to my ports, and I've only added ports (well, I mean I ran a pkg_add command from my mounted 1st cd) Basically, I am getting fetch error, and a message saying something about "try porting manually to /usr/ports/distfiles and try again" error 1 stop error 1 stop ... ... so basically, when I'm in the "ports" dir (on my HDD), I cannot do a make, make install, or a make -DBATCH install I heard one suggestion about su'ing the root, but I was in root, and I also checked the permission rights on the ../distfiles dir, but I had writes permission as a user. What am I doing wrong? PS - Which CD has the famous "GIMP" on it? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
