I successfully updated the perl5 port via cvsup, but when I make I'm still having some difficulty: fetch: perl-5.6.1.tar.gz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) [here it checked a bunch of places before finally getting it at gatekeeper.dec.com -- any idea why just ftp.freebsd.org didn't succeed?] >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/plan/perl/CPAN/modules/by- module/../../src/. Receiving perl-5.6.1.tar.gz (5983695 bytes): 100% 5983695 bytes transferred in 16.9 seconds (346.16 kBps) >> BSDPAN-5.6.1.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/local- distfiles/../../src/. fetch: BSDPAN-5.6.1.tar.gz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) It went through dozens of places looking for this BSDPAN file before I finally aborted. Anyone know about this file? Or do I have something mis-configured so that it does the "file not found, no access" thing (which I seem to see alot when I try to make).
