Sometimes (not often) when installing ports from the ports collection or upgrading ports (via portupgrade -R) when fetching some needed tar.gz file, the fetch hangs, just like now: => rdiff-backup-1.2.6.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. => Attempting to fetch from http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/rdiff-backup/. fetch: http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-1.2.6.tar.gz: Moved Temporarily => Attempting to fetch from http://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/. rdiff-backup-1.2.6.tar.gz 43% of 191 kB 107 kBps This is now immobile for over an hour ... Up to now when such a hang occured, I just waited and waited and eventually it would continue and finish the job. But, is there a safe way to do a retry? I dare not just do a Ctrl-C and issue # portupgrade -R rdiff-backup again, since I have no no clue what could go wrong if one does that ... Or is it save to do Ctrl-C and try again?help
