OK, I was able to compile aria2! Huge thanks to t-tujikawa on the aria2 forum for committing the necessary changes (r2404) and helping me figure out the 4.7-stable compiler issue. See http://tinyurl.com/obsdml for details. In summary, I needed to:
pkg_add gcc-4.2.4p0v0.tgz pkg_add g++-4.2.4p2v0.tgz pkg_add libcares-1.6.0.tgz pkg_add libxml-2.7.6.tgz svn export https://aria2.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/aria2/trunk aria2 cd aria2 CXX=/usr/local/bin/eg++ CC=/usr/local/bin/egcc CXXCPP=/usr/local/bin/ecpp ./configure --with-libcares-prefix=/usr/local make install I'm hoping aria2 (as well as libmetalink, etc) will soon make it into ports. I'm also hoping curl will soon add metalink support as well. Sample metalinks can be found at http://metalinker.org/samples.html Best regards, Alex Libman -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Accessible with your email software or over the web
