Modified files:
usr.sbin/portsnap/portsnap portsnap.sh
Log:
Instead of selecting a mirror and failing if it is inaccessible, keep
track of which mirrors we have tried and try a different mirror if we
fail when trying to download the SSL public key or the snapshot
signature.
Failures later in the download process will not result in switching to
a different mirror, for two reasons:
1. If is very unlikely that a mirror will fail partway through the
process of downloading updates.
2. If we switched from a more recently updated mirror to a less
recently updated mirror partway through the download process, we would
end up failing anyway because we would be trying to fetch files which
the second mirror didn't have yet.
