MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I heard from several friends who did FTP installs of 5.0-RELEASE, that the installer was unable to install the ports collection. So I checked the various FTP sites, and to my amazement I couldn't find the ports.tgz file on any of them! See for example: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/5.0-RELEASE/ports/ ftp://ftp.nl.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/5.0-RELEASE/ports/ or any other FreeBSD mirror sites. It is also the case for other architectures. However, on the 5.0-RELEASE i386 install CD I have here, there is such a ports directory, with a ports.tgz file (and accompanying CHECKSUM.MD5 and install.sh files). Is this a deliberate omission on the FTP servers?
