Thank you John,
I arrived at pkg.conf but I was not patient enough to land to
/etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf ;)
anyhow, my FreeBSD.conf has this:
FreeBSD: {
url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/quarterly",
mirror_type: "srv",
signature_type: "fingerprints",
fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg",
enabled: yes
}
So the mistery of the missing but compilable packages is solved for me.
I was picking packages from "quarterly" but compiling
ports from a recently got ports tree, wich corresponds more closely to the
"latest" package directory.
I will look into "latest" before compiling the stuff myself next time.
Bye
Nicola
