Re: 6.2 AMD64 Ports Problem
Thats weird. When I updated using cvsup it updated all of the ports in my /usr/ports directory. I then ran make install on /usr/ports/x11/xorg, it then looks for dri-7.0.1,2.tbz, but that file isn't in amd64/packages-6.2-release/latest or amd64/packages-6.2-release/graphics/. It is only in the packages-7-release/graphics directory. Why would xorg require a app that isn't in my current build? How do I get around it if I cant use the packages-7-release files?

A couple of points: 1) 'make install' doesn't try to install packages, it installs ports. In particular 'make install' doesn't fetch packages from the FTP site, these are added by pkg_add -r (and other commands). 2) Updated packages for 6.x are in the packages-6-stable/ directory.
