[-- Attachment #1 --] Joe & Fhe Barbish(barbish@a1poweruser.com)@2002.02.24 13:20:04 +0000: > When I use pkg_add -r lynx to retrieve & install the lynx > package tar file, I can not find the lynx package tar file > in /usr/ports/distfiles after the install is completed. > > How do I tell pkg_add to save the tar file? > From the manpage for pkg_add: The environment variables PKG_TMPDIR and TMPDIR, in that order, are taken to name temporary directories where pkg_add will attempt to create its staging area in. If these variables are not present or if the directories named lack sufficient space, then pkg_add will use the first of /var/tmp, /tmp or /usr/tmp with sufficient space. So, be sure to check /var/tmp, /tmp or /usr/tmp. -- Scott Nolde GPG Key 0xD869AB48 [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8eTnfvDSQh9hpq0gRAupRAJ9M6dvOTClZ5w1NivRvEU5kz1oL1QCgjlD9 dV+qYlOarPVPS+PX+XwfVys= =1Fbo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
