Hi I maintain my own package repository, served over ftp and I am finding that often times a package will not fully get installed on a remote host. For example, if i run pkg_add -r python24 and i know i have just built that port's package and it works, sometimes it will only install a few of the packages files. # pkg_info -L python24-2.4.3_3 Information for python24-2.4.3_3: Files: /usr/local/man/man1/python.1.gz /usr/local/man/man1/python2.4.1.gz python24 has hundreds of files it installs, but only these 2 really got installed. this also happens with php5-session at times. If i rebuild the package on the package repository host I can ensure 1-3 good remote installs but after that the problem crops up again. This gets problematic when you're updating hundreds of hosts. Has anyone else experienced this? Found what is causing the problem?
