Since the ./distinfo file began listing the "SIZE=" line, my portupgrade scripts (and fetch) have broken when I upgrade. I'm running 4.7PRE and 4.8PRE. (I'm trying to floppy install 5.2-RELEASE, as well.) Do I need to get a new version of fetch? Hand-deleting the SIZE line in the ./distinfo file is a temp workaround; is there a better way? ...I must have missed *something* gary -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.thought.org Public service Unix ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I've started doing this. The full summary was sent to ports@ and ports-developers@, plus I added a copy to /usr/ports/CHANGES. This is now the second major ports update I've summarized. Once the archives get back up to speed, you should be able to see my previous summary.
