The past 9 days I was sitting at various pay-fer internet cafes and thus have not dealt with i386-5 (I had hoped it was going to be finished while I was still in Munich and had the wireless). I had thought of 'sending the reminder mails' and 'uploading the packages' as one unit, but I suppose I should have split them up. The former was not feasible from the cafes. I am now back but suffering from jet-lag so it will be another more 12 hours or so before I can look at the reminder-mails.

Hi Kris, I know things must be pretty busy with 6.2, but is there any chance that the 5.5-STABLE packages can be updated soon? I just checked again, and at least apache and phpyadmin are still stale, going on two months now.

I dont think so, sysinstall isn't really intended as a post-install package management tool. Kris pgpX5si95BLLb.pgp Description: PGP signature

As we're often enough reminded :) Thought I'd get it all up to date, then cvsup to 6.2 once released. > However the main FTP distribution server has been offline with > hardware failure for the past week or two, so I can't push out any of > the subsequent updates. Hopefully this will be resolved soon (it's > also holding up the 6.2 release cycle). Thanks Kris, may it Get Well Soon. BTW, just to try, I'd installed 6.1-R on another box over the net from the boot-only CD, and enjoyed being able to install heaps of packages from sysinstall that way, but was a bit dismayed to find it hadn't kept the fetched packages .. is there a way to ask sysinstall to do that?

There's always a lag, of course (computers aren't yet infinitely fast ;-). It's usually only a lag of a couple of days for 6.x, longer for 5.x since it's a "legacy" branch and not our main focus of activity. However the main FTP distribution server has been offline with hardware failure for the past week or two, so I can't push out any of the subsequent updates. Hopefully this will be resolved soon (it's also holding up the 6.2 release cycle). Kris pgpMT8zVTzbiv.pgp Description: PGP signature

Hi all, FreeBSD paqi.smithi.id.au 5.5-STABLE FreeBSD 5.5-STABLE #0: Sun Nov 19 20:22:12 EST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PAQI5S_2 i386 On 4th December, after a recent portsnap fetch/update, I ran portupgrade -anPP to prefetch all available packages for a well overdue upgrade of all ports on this box, most dating from 5.4-RELEASE CDs Apart from taking ~7 hours to fetch ~550MB for ~220 packages, and except for a few non-packageable ports, that went fine. Then on 10th December, after much study of UPDATING and adopting the procedures there for KDE, I ran portupgrade -aPP on those packages, which apart from updating PHP4 then installing PHP5 on top of it (which I'll take up later) went better than I'd dared to dream, taking ~8 hours. Awesome work guys! However after then running portsnap fetch/update to pick up anything new since the 4th, and after upgrading portupgrade, ran another portupgrade -anPP to pick up available packages for the ~35 ports newly out of date, intending to finish off by building any remaining ports from sources. I was glad I'd specified -PP .. every fetch from $subject directory failed. Checking manually, then and again tonight, I see that indeed only the versions of files that were (correctly) current at 4th December are still there now. The latest file date there says 17th November. Is this likely a temporary glitch, or do -stable packages only get updated to match the current ports tree after some expectable delay?
