Even if I try to run pkg_add without any parameters, it still dies, is it pkg_add that is broken? What do you mean with 1e and 1f? I'm not into this cvsup thing, I just need it to update my ports tree. Should I get the source and build it, and if so, where should I place the source prior to build? Will this fix my problem, or is it an entire new problem? -- Med venlig hilsen/Best regards, Søren Neigaard mailto:neigaard@e-box.dk -- "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler."
