Hi, I an running FreeBSD 3.2 on an i386 platform.  I cvsup'ed the ports
collection and find myself needing to update a few files in my source
tree.  I grabbed the file 32upgrade.tgz off of the FreeBSD Web site
and attempted to run pkg_add ./32upgrade.tgz.  The pkg_add failed with
the message:
./+REQUIRE: permission denied
pkg_add: package /root/pkg/32upgrade.tgz fails requirements - not installed

Upon inspection I find that the file +REQUIRE in the 32upgrade.tgz package
has different ownership than the other files:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel      71 Apr 22 02:59 +COMMENT
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     186 Apr 22 02:59 +CONTENTS
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     151 Apr 22 02:59 +DESC
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     102 Apr 22 02:59 +INSTALL
-rw-r--r--  1 569   569       135 May 20  1999 +REQUIRE
drwxr-xr-x  4 root  wheel     512 Apr 28 12:24 usr/

Perhaps someone could take a couple of minutes and rebuild the 32upgrade.tgz
file with the perms changed?

Thanx.
