I think you are confusing package with releases. They are really independant and you just have snapshots of what is current on the release CDROMs. When you cvsup ports-all, for example, you use a "tag=.", which locates the ports on the head or current tree. In my mind, you should not be looking on the 4.4 tree for the mySQL packages. By this time, all or most of them would have most likely been upgraded and anything you downloaded would be using old code. There are all kinds of mySQL packages on ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/databases/ Kent > > Gabriel. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Hostmaster@freebsd.org auto responder" <devnull@FreeBSD.ORG> > To: <gabriel@schillaci.com.ar> > Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 7:31 PM > Subject: hostmaster@freebsd.org automatic response > > > >>This is a canned auto-reply to your recent email to >> > hostmaster@freebsd.org. > >>The purpose of this address is for coordinating DNS updates to the >>freebsd.org zone itself, and dealing with DNS operational problems or >>errors. >> >>It is *NOT* for: >>- questions about where to get FreeBSD >>- reporting FreeBSD bugs >>- reporting download problems >>- etc. >> >>Unless your mail was directly DNS related, this will be the only >>reply you will get. ie: your email will be ignored. >> >>For more information, try: >>questions@freebsd.org (if in doubt, try here) >>hubs@freebsd.org (dealing with mirror changes, etc) >>http://www.freebsd.org/ (everything else) >> >>Thank you. >> >> >> > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > > . > > -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
