You shouldn't > remove anything in the ports tree that starts with a capitol > letter. downloading INDEX takes a lot of time & does not always reflects the reality. if we/i are/am going to create new INDEX anyway, then what's the point in downloading INDEX? make_index has changes which describe the non-default $PORTSDIR. if i remove it from the refuse file, i will have to update after every cvsup. i wouldn't mind removing it from refuse when "make index" outputs real $PORTSDIR not the default '/usr/ports'. otherwise, "make search" doesn't work. (i hear there's a patch coming to fix at least "make search" in this situation.) thing is i had these 2 files listed before in refuse & cvsup worked as expected. now it doesn't. very perplexing. - parv -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
