This is primarily for our own internal use so I don't want to add support for a ton of things if nobody is going to use this, so speak up if you want something! > > > > What did i miss ?? > > setenv PACKAGESITE http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest/ > root@hostbsd:/ # pkg update > Updating repository catalogue > pkg: http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest//repo.txz: Not Found 'pkg' is the next generation packaging (pkgng). These are the older style, usable with something like pkg_add. Example: # setenv PACKAGESITE http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest/ # pkg_add -r gmake Fetching http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest/gmake.tbz... Done. # We can build pkgng style packages if there's demand for it, but we're not using it internally right now so they aren't being built. -- Kevin
