But the Link: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/Latest/openoffice.org.tbz is linked with ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/All/openoffice.org-1.1.5_2.tbz It is a simple change with ln. Not more! openoffice.org 2.0 was already created during the RELEASE-6.2-process. Still again: Why is this link showing to an older package, when to the same time a newer package exist for the RELEASE_6_2 (not RELENG_6)? ___________________________________________________________ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de
