(someone correct me please if I'm wrong) /usr/sbin/portsnap is just a shell script: # file /usr/sbin/portsnap=20 /usr/sbin/portsnap: POSIX shell script, ASCII text executable Just because the shell script portsnap is installed does not mean that it will provide updates (that would ultimately be based the FreeBSD ports git repository content). The lines in the script that fetch the compressed snapshot look like: echo "Fetching snapshot generated at `date -r ${SNAPSHOTDATE}`:" fetch -r http://${SERVERNAME}/s/${SNAPSHOTHASH}.tgz || return 1 where by default SERVERNAME is as shown below: # grep SERVERNAME /etc/portsnap.conf SERVERNAME=3Dportsnap.FreeBSD.org (It gets the SNAPSHOTHASH from another file fetched from the server. I'll not indicate such details.) Saying that portsnap is to be deprecated is to say that the http://${SERVERNAME}/s/${SNAPSHOTHASH}.tgz files (and related) will not have updated versions to fetch --and that will cause portsnap to stop working for its purpose, eve if installed. It is likely that the lack of: http://${SERVERNAME}/s/${SNAPSHOTHASH}.tgz files (and related) is tied to not producing such files from the new FreeBSD ports git repository. So, likely: Yes, directly related to moving to git. >=20 > Still, in the long run, expect it to vanish. >=20 When /usr/sbin/portsnap is removed from the file systems is not in control of when useful: http://${SERVERNAME}/s/${SNAPSHOTHASH}.tgz files exist. But there is not much point to having /usr/sbin/portsnap in the file systems once useful versions of such files are no longer available to fetch. =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
