Hi Marty,

The problem is mentioned at http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html. For
2.2.2 RELEASE, a tarball with a few files needed for some of the ports to
work is at
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/packages-2.2.2/222upgrade-97.07.09.tgz.
just unpack it onto / and the files you lack will be present.

Regards,
Palle
