I don't know what crap you're talking, but if you would have installed the ports tree upon installation this wouldn't be an issue. Yes, you want to save space and cut down on back-up times, awesome goals, but you should have been following on the list and in the handbook where CVS has been deprecated (whether for good or bad, it's done) and portsnap/SVN are now the preferred methods. > I'm fubarbed No, just too lazy to pull off a few extra steps for a one-off with portsnap or svn (which you will have to compile yourself, I'm afraid, though maybe someone will make a package for ya) > Now I just had a port I maintain committed yesterday > and I have no way to test it to verify the port is working. And? Pull it in with svn. I use svn to keep tabs on tk85 (and I only pull in tk85) in my user folder and I use svn to update my ports tree nightly. > And doing a portsnap which may not contain my updated port > for a few days if ever until all the other problem are addressed. portsnap shouldn't be affected by the pkgbeta site being down, someone else with more knowledge on the subject should feel free to correct me. > This 9.1 release was released prematurely.

Now there is some FUD for ya. -- Yours in Christ, Joseph A Nagy Jr "Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, But he who hates correction is stupid." -- Proverbs 12:1 Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
