Actually, there's something else going on. I can build policykit on FBSD alpha 6.4-stable fine, but it fails on 8.0-current. I tried repeating download many times, it always goes fine on 6.4 but always fails on 8.0, of which I deduce that overloaded sourceforge is not to blame. -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
