Bug ID: 255426
Summary: Document why it is not possible to list packages on
the pkg mirror website
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Keywords: needs-patch
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Website
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In the past, we offered users a way to list and browse the packages available
on the pkg mirror, e.g., at
http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/quarterly/All/.
Due to the cost of handling such requests, the site now returns 403 instead.
We should either present users with a static website explaining the change or
at least document what happened in, e.g., FAQ.
