Thanks for your assistance, Sven and Stuart! It's just that ftp2.eu.openbsd.org is slow for me. As nothing in my environment had changed and the download of the base system didn't take longer than usual, I thought pkg_add(1) might be doing something differently. speedtest-cli says 20 Mbit/s download speed, while lynx http://ftp2.eu.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD//snapshots/packages/amd64/ takes ages. FETCH_CMD="ftp -v" did not make much of a difference, as it's the initial ftp -v -o - http://ftp2.eu.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/amd64/ that takes so long (I'm ctrl-c'ing it after 10 minutes right now, on my third machine to upgrade.) ftp.hostserver.de to the rescue... Sorry for the noise! Marcus
