Have you tried googling? I was quite successful in finding the file, for instance here: http://mirrors.zyrianes.net/gentoo/distfiles/ . Generally, I find that a quick google with the file just as it appears there in the distinfo is a quick and easy way to get the file you need. Plus, since the files are MD5'd, you won't have to worry about accidentally getting the wrong one. Isn't FreeBSD great? -- If I write a signature, my emails will appear more personalised. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
