Hello all, I wanted to install the XFree86 package on my dusty new FreeBSD 5.0 box, yet couldn't because the package is unavailable on both ftp.freebsd.org and the NL mirror (haven't checked others).
A listing from the right directory (determined by running "pkg_add -r XFree86") shows the following (from ftp.freebsd.org): ---8<--- ftp> pwd 257 "/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.0-release/Latest" is cwd. ftp> ls XFree86.* 227 Entering Passive Mode (62,243,72,50,221,153) 150 Data connection accepted from 213.46.105.205:1025; transfer starting. lrwxr-xr-x 1 ftpuser ftpusers 28 Jan 16 19:11 XFree86.tbz -> ../All/XFree86-4.2.0_1,1.tbz 226 Listing completed. --->8--- That symlink should point to something in this directory: ---8<--- ftp> cd ../All 250 "/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.0-release/All" is new cwd. ftp> ls X* 227 Entering Passive Mode (62,243,72,50,222,2) 150 Data connection accepted from 213.46.105.205:1025; transfer starting. 226 Listing completed. --->8--- There aren't any XFree86 packages to be found at all! Is the symlink pointing to the incorrect place, or are there actually packages missing? Any information is appreciated.
