Actually: bash-2.02$ file /usr/ports/pa* /usr/ports/pa*: can't stat `/usr/ports/pa*': No such file or directory. But yeah, after I make the directory, "make package" installs it, and everything else works. Note that the add_pkg man page doesn't mention /usr/ports at all. >From what it says, if PKG_PATH isn't set, everything should work right *anyway*. make package should build in the current directory, and pkg_add should find the package in the current directory. <mike On Sun, 10 Jan 1999, Steve Price wrote: > Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 20:20:36 -0600 (CST) > From: Steve Price <sprice@hiwaay.net> > To: Mike Meyer <mwm@phone.net> > Cc: freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: ports/9422 > > On Sun, 10 Jan 1999, Mike Meyer wrote: > > # /usr/ports/package/All doesn't seem to exist on my system > > Argh, should have been /usr/ports/packages/All. > > # (3.0-RELEASE).
