The pkgng wiki ( https://wiki.freebsd.org/pkgng ) seems to be misleading on the issue of including vs. not including /latest in http.../latest in that it lists: url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest" so when I was looking around it did not suggest that I remove the "/Latest" suffix from the url that I had: it instead suggested to me that it should be included. (Took me a while to find where I'd seen "/latest" listed when I was looking around.) === Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net On Jun 25, 2014, at 2:17 PM, Mark Millard <markmi@dsl-only.net> wrote: I was too literal about using the "Download: Packages" link that was listed on http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/powerpc-10-packages/ . I should have stuck with http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/powerpc-10-packages . The web page for http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/powerpc-10-packages/ does not mention or list digests.txz (or packgesite.txz). (If it had I probably would have figured this out quickly by seeing the file listed at that level.) I see now that I should expect digests.txz and packagesite.txz to be one level up from the .txz's for the packages themselves (even if I can not see those two files). Looking a the list of log files ( http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/powerpc-10-packages/logs ) shows digest.txz is valid but just happens to be only one character different from the digests.txz name. === Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.nethome | help
