Hi, I got a similar message when I try to install python, but upong investigating I realise that python was already installed - perhaps as a pre-requisite for glib2. I am not using PKG_PATH, rather I use /etc/installurl for specifying a list of my mirrors (man installurl(5) for details)
$ doas pkg_add python-2.7.13p0 quirks-2.304 signed on 2017-04-02T15:01:33Z https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.1/packages-stable/amd64/python-2.7.13p0.tgz: ftp: Error retrieving file: 404 Not Found signify: gzheader truncated For a very long time I was trying to understand why pkg_add is looking for package in packages-stable directory when this directory does not exists on any of the mirrors. I checked the standard directory paths for mirror on OpenBSD website and this directory was not there also. Can someone help me understand why it is so, or point to some relevant document. Also, I had to run the following commands as recommended by pkg_info python $ doas ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/python $ doas ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python2.7-2to3 /usr/local/bin/2to3 $ doas ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python2.7-config /usr/local/bin/python-config $ doas ln -sf /usr/local/bin/pydoc2.7 /usr/local/bin/pydoc Do we have any alternatives management system in OpenBSD like we have in linux or this has to be done by hand.
