Hi, can anyone enlighten me as to how alpha packages are put together ? they look quite different to the i386 packages tree. e.g there is no 4.4 release tree - it points directly at packages-4-stable. the packages-5-current tree has a Latest directory made up of symlinks into the All directory the packages-4-stable has a Latest directory which is approximately the same size as the All directory ? since each tree is about 1.5G in size, does this mean that we're forced to download an extra 1.5G each time the tree is updated (for no reason?) or am i missing something? -rw-r--r-- 1 mirror mirror 36486 Apr 23 2001 All/3dc-0.8.1.tgz -rw-r--r-- 1 mirror mirror 36486 Apr 23 2001 Latest/3dc.tgz regards, -jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
