Trying to install *ANY* ocaml package fails, due to a missing 'lang/ocaml' binary package I didn't modify /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf: # $FreeBSD: release/10.0.0/etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf 258710 2013-11-28 14:24:26Z gjb $ FreeBSD: { url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest", mirror_type: "srv", signature_type: "fingerprints", fingerprints: "/usr/share/keys/pkg", enabled: yes } Is there something wrong with the mirror, or how did the binary package get lost? There are ocaml libraries available as binary packages, so at some point 'lang/ocaml' itself must've existed, no? [I tried to submit this using send-pr, and then via my email client, but it didn't get an automated acknowledgment email (although I did for another PR I sent), so I'm sending this again via the web-interface. Sorry if this results in a duplicate PR] >How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD 10 amd64 in a VM using the FreeBSD-10.0-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso or FreeBSD-10.0-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso Login as root, run /usr/sbin/pkg, tell it to fetch # pkg install lang/ocaml Updating repository catalogue pkg: No packages matching 'lang/ocaml' available in the repositories >Fix: Build it from source: portsnap fetch portsnap extract cd /usr/ports/lang/ocaml make install >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
