I don't see this preference being remembered after the installation though. O.D. On 23. september 2014 at 1:25 PM, "ludovic coues" wrote:> why aren't there any sane PKG_PATH defaults?

Such problem prompted archlinux to throttle their main repository server to force user to choose a mirror more adapted to geographic situation. OpenBSD solution is to ask the user to choose a mirror at installation time. -- Cordialement, Coues Ludovic +336 148 743 42
