I forgot I had to do the post-processing thing, so it will have to wait a bit. Also, the default for PKG_DBDIR was ".". Because you don't want your system to be cluttered by ./All and ./Latest directories, I think we should remove any default value to force people to set PACKAGES to some path with included dynamic branch version, like: export PACKAGES=/var/cache/pkg/packages-`sysctl -n kern.osreldate | cut -c1` I'm a bit confused about what policy we should have with this, so I'm moving the discussion to -ports. -- Florent Thoumie flz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD Committer [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBE6uO0MxEkbVFH3PQRApJGAJ4r1c2CF/OUTuWAVOYgkJARXP7p4wCeOEoL u5hEjOLJqq9QAIs780kIcZg= =Pchk -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
