What am I doing wrong?
I am running FreeBSD 6.2 XOrg 7.2 Gnome 2.18 on the Generic kernel
I also tried pkg_add -r xfig-3.2.5 but I am getting message
[root@ /usr/ports/distfiles]# pkg_add xfig-3.2.5
pkg_add: can't stat package file 'xfig-3.2.5'
[root@ /usr/ports/distfiles]# pkg_add -r xfig-3.2.5
Error: FTP Unable to get

I can't tell you for sure about the message you are getting trying to
compile it from Ports, BUT this "local modification time does not match
remote" seems to me like there is something wrong with the date / time
settings on your machine. Have you checked this? Is your clock
synchronized with an NTP server?
For the pkg_add part, solution is simple:
either change PACKAGESITE from Latest to All, e.g.
export PACKAGESITE=
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/All/
(or setenv PACKAGESITE
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/All/ if
you use csh)
and repeat your command:
pkg_add -r xfig-3.2.5
or simply, without changing your PACKAGESITE, do:
pkg_add -r xfig
This will get you the latest package. The "Latest" location in the
FreeBSD FTP server contains links to the latest build packages. You
don't add version numbers in this case.
In fact a quick look in the FTP site suggests the latest version is
xfig-3.2.5.a5_2

Of course,
I am a moron. The clock is not synchronized with an NTP server. The
clock drifting took me by surprise since this is relatively fresh
installation.
I used your quick solution with pkg_add to add xfig-3.2.5 to add the
application.
Now xfig works perfectly. Good thing I had a problem with that unstable
ALPHA new develop version of Xfig because now I know that I have to fix
the clock.
Thanks Everybody
