I would rather recommend using sysutils/p5-FreeBSD-portindex to generate the INDEX locally and fast. I strongly suggest that this is backed-out (or at very least explained i the man page). -- IOnut - Unregistered ;) FreeBSD "user" "Intellectual Property" is nowhere near as valuable as "Intellect" BOFH excuse #160: non-redundant fan failure _______________________________________________ cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
