Hi, While trying to install git with: portmaster -a portmaster -D --no-confirm devel/git This error occurs: htmlxref.cnf doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles//texinfo/6.5. Apparently, I need to update ports, per this "bug" report[1]. And yet, these don't fix the issue: portmaster -af portmaster --clean-distfiles-all portmaster --check-port-dbdir portmaster -Faf # and have also tried variations on direct install, like: portmaster -D --no-confirm print/texinfo I've also tried: portsnap update # but it complains that I need to portsnap extract also.. And yet, I don't want to create voluminous storage.. and have two ports management systems in use. So, what is the system expecting to update ports for portmaster in this case? thanks kindly, Ben 1. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235857
