Packages are only built for releases, not the -STABLE branch. 4.10-STABLE is similar enough to 4.10-RELEASE that the packages should work. If they don't, install from ports instead of packages. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
