>Description:
The distinfo file for the x11-fonts/font-alias port is completely wrong - it refers to font-alias-1.0.1.bz2 instead of font-alias-1.0.1-tgz and also uses the wrong directory (xorg) instead of x11-fonts. This means the port wont install.

The port is missing completely from some mirrors (eg UK, IE), but is required for those of us with NVidia graphics cards. However, this is not documented anywhere that I could find (except Google)!


>How-To-Repeat:
cvsup ports-supfile
cd /usr/ports/x11-fonts/font-alias
make
>Fix:
Install competitive OS or use commandline :-(
