Hi! First of all let me thank you for your work. I know that oo is a big port and I assume it's not an easy task to maintain it. I want to install the current version of editors/openoffice-2.0, and I've got across some issues: i. pkg_name I've downloaded OOo_SRC680_m146_FreeBSD60Intel_install_en-US.tbz from ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/FreeBSD/2.0m146/FreeBSD6/ but 'portinstall -PP editors/openoffice-2.0' fails because it looks for a package named 'openoffice-2.0.1.tbz' I remember writing about this issue in the past ... so here I go again, what is the reason for this port to behave differently than the rest of the ports regarding the package name? if the package name is the one that's expected by all the ports tools, then we can just set PACKAGE_SITE and use portupgrade/portinstall easily enough: setenv PACKAGE_SITE ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/FreeBSD/2.0m146/FreeBSD6/ portinstall -PP editors/openoffice-2.0 Perhaps you need the information encoded in the pkg_name: m146 (milestone?) or SRC680 (snapshot?) Why not set this in the port, perhaps in PORTREVISION? ii. checksums So, I just renamed the file to the expected pkg_name (openoffice-2.0.1.tbz), moved it into the expected place, and tried again. portinstall -PP editors/openoffice.org-2.0 ---> Checking for the latest package of 'editors/openoffice.org-2.0' tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format pkg_info: tar extract of /usr/ports/packages/All/openoffice.org-2.0.1.tbz failed! pkg_info: error during unpacking, no info for 'openoffice.org-2.0.1.tbz' availabl e Seems like there's a problem with the tarball, since tar also gives me an error: tar tvyf /usr/ports/packages/All/openoffice.org-2.0.1.tbz [ lots of output snipped ] -r--r--r-- 0 root wheel 17184 Dec 23 19:36 openoffice.org-SRC680_m146/program/python-core-2.3.4/lib/lib-dynload/zlib.so tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format Perhaps it will be a good idea to include checksums along with the packages so we can see if the downloaded package is not truncated? I'm downloading it again just in case ... Fernan
