Hi everyone,
	I'm upgrading all the ports I have installed and the command I 
used is "portupgrade -aP", exluding ruby and portupgrade itself.
Sad news is that for every single package it tries to fetch it doesn't 
find anything, so it uses the ports, and it needs lots of time to compile 
everything. (gnome, X, firefox are not so fast to compile!)
Am I doing something wrong or /Luca]$ ssh presotto@lxplus.cern.ch

Hi everyone,

Am I doing something wrong or are the packages really missing?

I'm using freeBSD 7.0-release on a i386 architectyre and I'm trying to 
update the ports after 
having done portsnap fetch update, so it should be trying to install the 
latest version of the ports.

Thank you,
	Luca
