I installed wget and added the line FETCH_CMD="/usr/local/bin/wget" to my /etc/make.conf file. With the next make install it launched wget and ran fine. I tried to test the program by stopping the fetch sequence on one of the sources near the end. When I restarted the Make Install is knoticed the file was there and tried to build it without restarting the fetch sequence. Any ideas??? Is is possible that the sight did not have reget available. Just thought I'd ask if you have seen this before. >From: Roman Neuhauser <neuhauser@mobil.cz> >To: William Evanson <evawil823@hotmail.com> >CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG >Subject: Re: Make Fetch resume (Is is possible to do...) >Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 09:05:21 +0100 > > > From: "William Evanson" <evawil823@hotmail.com> > > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG > > Subject: Make Fetch resume (Is is possible to do...) > > Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 01:35:00 -0600 > > > > I am still relatively new to the whole ports process.
