Dunno, Gary. I had to edit the Makefile on my home system for japanese/gawk, because it still had the NCFTP stuff: for file in ${DISTPATCHES} ; do \ for site in ${PATCH_SITES} ; do \ if ${FETCH_CMD} ${FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS} $${site}$${file}; then \ break; \ Once I did this, I did the make, and it went out and got the stuff from the right places. The main gawk was fetched from gatekeeper, that's what I would expect. I hid my local distfiles during this, to force the fetch. I don't like the way the pre-fetch target works, cause it doesn't tell you the actual site name it fetched from, like the main fetch code from bsd.port.mk will. That's a pretty small nit, tho. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and n3lxx, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 2.2 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
