They have the option of using cvsupit.tgz, which is similar to the regular install, nothing fancy. No dependancies either, just did a 'pkg_add cvsupit.tgz' (on a clean install) and off you go. If it gets as far as establishing a connection, it will add /usr/local/bin/cvsup and create /etc/cvsup based on what you enter... Excecpt it added some things I didn't check. Just tried to get ports only, but: *default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs *default tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix src-all src-crypto src-secure *default tag=. ports-all A bit more than I wanted with src-all including ports-all. Bug? Or just an overkill default if you don't enter anything on the menu, hit ok, and say yes to ports. :/ This is the 7/25/98 copy from the CVSup directory.
