Yes... but eg the first one in the list already is... and fetch will try each of them, starting with the first. It would be too much user interaction for a port to require you to manually select a download location, esp if it means editing the Makefile, after setting USA_RESIDENT correctly. Second, although you certainly can use RSAREF if you get it from a non-US source, but you should not, because it is an inferior implementation to the international version found eg on internat. So you should not use it if you do not have to... I have to go out on business now, but if no one has looked into this by the time I return, I will try to investigate things a bit, and, if necessary, submit a PR. -- Regards: Szilveszter ADAM Szeged University Szeged Hungary To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
