What to do now? Well, it sure doesn't sound like you did it right either. The question is what did you do wrong. The active part of my cvsup file for the ports is the following: *default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix # If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out the following line. *default compress ## Ports Collection. # # The easiest way to get the ports tree is to use the "ports-all" # mega-collection. It includes all of the individual "ports-*" # collections, ports-all This works for me. The ports-all also keeps the make files up todate. There is only a head version of the ports and that is why the "tag=." is there.
