If you want them to be as up to date as possible, then yes. ports/INDEX is updated be cvsup, but since the file itself is only regenerated on a semi-regular basis it will often be a few weeks out of date. If this is a problem for you, you should rebuild it yourself. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
