When I tried to pkg_add make-3.79.1 the attempt failed --NO RECORD. My try to copy the file via ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/make-3.79.1.tbz was also a failure. Then I sifted all http://ftps mirrored in A2.FTP Sites and found out that no one of them contains'5.3-release'. How can I get make-3.79.1.tbz please? yours` serguey __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

You will have to either 1a) Use a mirror that still carries old packages (see http://mirrorlist.freebsd.org for a start), and 1b) Use the correct filename (it's not called make) 2) build the port yourself (gmake is quick to compile) 3) Update to 6.1 which will carry packages on all mirrors for quite a while.

pkg_add problem
Hello Im trying to install gnome2 via pkg_add -r since the port install gave me an error half way through. So when I type: pkg_add -r gnome2 I get: Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/ packages-5.3-release/Latest/gnome2.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) pkg_add: unable to fetch 'tp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/ packages-5.3-release/Latest/gnome2.tbz' by URL I can ftp to the freeBSD site but im jut not sure what pkg to get... any idea why my pkg_add -r doesnt work?

Re: pkg_add problem
Uhh... Well my first bet when trying to find stuff on FTP would be to follow the path that the address given tries to specify. Had you tried, you would have found that packages-5.3-release doesn't exist under ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/. This would have led you to wonder how to change the site pkg_add -r uses for packages. This, appropriately enough, is set in the environment variable PACKAGESITE, which you could have found by googling the archives (this question came up maybe a week ago) or reading the man page. My recommendation would be: o Set PACKAGESITE to: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/ o pkg_add -rf portupgrade o portupgrade -arfP eoghan wrote: Hello Im trying to install gnome2 via pkg_add -r since the port install gave me an error half way through.

You MIGHT have possibly gotten a DIFFERENT error message, but not the SAME one. Sorry im using apple mail and it seems to add that space. Im putting the correct path in. The error comes back the same with the path changed (the one i set it to). ive just done a fresh install today and have the manual. I installed from 5.3 dvd and my manual says: pkg_add -r gnome2 - so the path set initially is coming from my install?? But I did change it. Once I reboot and login as root i do the setenv. Im really not sure what im doing wrong. Ive checked the ftp site and it works.
