The ports tree is just instructions on building programs. It doesn't include the source. That would add another 14GB to the size of your download :) You will have to manually download that file and place it in /usr/ports/distfiles, or tell fetch about your authenticated proxy (run 'man 3 fetch', search for ENVIRONMENT). -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
