Two problems happened almost simultaneously, actually: 1. Due to some chaos surrounding the relocation of the main FreeBSD.org cluster, the portsnap builds stopped for about 20 hours. They're running again now, but will probably stop on Monday as the FreeBSD.org cluster continues its relocation. (On the positive side, nobody can commit to the ports tree while the cluster is in transit, so portsnap users won't be missing anything at this point.) 2. One of the portsnap mirrors, portsnap1.freebsd.org, is not updating at the moment; I've sent an email to the administrator of this server asking him to investigate. Until it starts updating again (most likely a matter of hours), you can force portsnap to use the other mirror: # portsnap -s portsnap2.freebsd.org fetch Colin Percival
