I have done tests last days, and now I can set PACKAGESITE correctly in use=
r's .cshrc (I have unset the parameter in root's .cshrc).=0AElse, I have se=
t /usr/local/etc/portmaster.rc, as described in the portmaster's manpage.=
=0A=0AHere my /usr/local/etc/portmaster.rc=0A=0APM_SU_VERBOSE=3D=0APM_SU_CM=
D=3D/usr/local/bin/sudo=0A=0AI don't know (or understand) if I have to set =
a value to PM_SU_VERBOSE=0AI have tried to set PM_SU_VERBOSE=3D/usr/local/b=
in/sudo without success=0AIf you can help me here, I have read the manpage =
hundred times, but haven't found where I am wrong. =0A=0AThen I have tried =
without the line PM_SU_VERBOSE, just with PM_SU_CMD=3D/usr/local/bin/sudo=
=0AI can install without problem packages with =0A$ portmaster -P -a -x ope=
noffice=0A=0ABut if there is no package available for the port, I got the m=
essage (it is an example) : =0A=0A=3D> libpng-1.4.3.tar.xz doesn't seem to =
