portupgrade problem

2009-04-10 Thread Canhua
hi,

I ran the following to upgrade on my 7.0-release FreBSD:
env
PACKAGEROOT=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/Late
st/ portupgrade -aPPR

and it would failed with this error:
fetch:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.orgpub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/pub/FreeBSD/po
rts/i386/packages-7.0-release/All/libX11-1.2.1,1.tbz: No address record

please notice the site address being changed to
ftp.freebsd.orgpub, not ftp.freebsd.org/pub,
the slash between org and pub disappear.

Best wishes

Canhua

 The Handbook says this should be PACKAGESITE. When I set it in my .cshrc, I
 have setenv. I haven't set it on my 7-stable but on 6-stable, it looks like

 setenv PACKAGESITE

You're right. I meant env PACKAGESITE=
and the problem remained what I said.

 ports-mgmt/portupgrade is a useful tool for easily getting packages and
 ports, it includes the tool portinstall which does what it says it does.
 By running portinstall -P pkgname, it will install a port and
 dependencies with packages if available, otherwise they are built from
 source.

 portsman and portmanager are some other frontend tools that can help
 with package administration, it's really up to your own tastes.

I tried portinstall, although dependecies are install with port sources still.
It take me a whole afternoon to portinstall math/py-neworkx, and it
still doesn't complete as yet.

 Hi, good day all. I am new to FreeBSD.
 I tried to pkg_add -r a package (py-networkx), which tell me that:
 Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/

 File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)

 although I know that py-network does exist in /usr/ports.
 Actually I could go to /usr/ports/math/py-networkx and make install
 using ports means.

 Then I could learn from this that there are softwares that could be
 install from ports while not able to be added from package system?
 Am I right?

 The package name of this port is 'py25-networkx'. You can use the
 Freshports.org search to find the package names.

Wonderful place~ thank you

However I could not pkg_add py25-networkx still, being told that
  pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7.0-release/Latest/py25-networkx.tbz'
