Dear sir, I cd'ed to /usr/ and ran # make pkgsrc-update and I get
cd /usr/pkgsrc && git pull fatal: Unable to look up git.dragonflybsd.org (port 9418) (hostname nor servname provided, or not known) *** Error code 1 Stop. make: stopped in /usr # If it starts up, after this, is there a tool like portmaster here? i.e, one that updates all ports on the ports tree? BTW, I am tracking stable repo 2013-Q1 in case it is important.
