I noticed that if I set an override site, that it uses it differently that a primary site. for example: if I have a file needed for a perl install on my ftp server: /pub/ports-distfiles/perl/defined-or-5.8.9.bz2 and set the over-ride to point to my local server's ports-distfiles directory, it fails to find that file because it doesn't look in .../perl/.., yet on the primary site (or the FreeBSD site) it looks for , and finds this file in the 'perl' subdirectory. On the Over-ride site however, it looks for it in the base directory. and doesn't look in the 'perl' subdirectory. (this is an 8.0 vintage system) but I see similar happennig on newer systems, (I will confirm this soon). Is there a way to specify a local distfile mirror that has the same layout as the primaries? Julian p.s. keep me in CCs please.
