While normally not able to pour water out of boot that had instructions on the heel, on Tue, Jun 11, 2002 at 07:15 our dear friend Jamie Ostrowski uttered this load of codswallop: > Can anyone tell me how to rebuild a port if it's been > accidently deleted?

I find that building cvsup takes a lot of resoures such as installing modula to build it, so I've always just put cvsup in as an installable package. You can do this. PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/packages export PKG_PATH or setenv PKG_PATHftp://ftp2.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/packages depending on what shell you use. Then do this. pkg_add -v $PKG_PATH/net/cvsup-without-gui-16.1f.tgz [or the approriate package substitued above] Really quite painless.
