I'm having a weird problem trying to fetch lang/gcc* ports using the ports system. This does not happen with other ports (at least not with the ones I tested, and with the latest gnome upgrade, I've been fetching lots of them), so I don't believe the cause to be my network connectivity or fetch(1). This is the first reason for this weirdness. This happens both doing 'make fetch' on the corresponding port directory or using portupgrade -F. The ports that I have installed and that I wanted to update are lang/gcc32, lang/gcc33 and lang/gcc34. In all cases this is as far as I get: pi# pwd /usr/ports/lang/gcc34 pi# make fetch Making GCC 3.4.4 for FreeBSD 4.11 target=i386-portbld-freebsd4.11 => gcc-core-3.4-20050311.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. at the same time CPU usage raises considerably and 75-80% of this corresponds to a process named random, which ps(1) shows as /usr/games/random. As soon as I Ctrl-C and quit the fetch, this process disappears and CPU usage return to normal levels. This is the second reason I found this weird. I'm completely intrigued by this. Anyone can reproduce it, or better yet have an idea of what is going on? This is on FreeBSD-4.11, i386 Thanks in advance, Fernan
