I realized that this was probably the case only after I sent the email, but= this keeps me from having to test so thanks. I do think the documentation leads one to think differently about what PACK= AGESITE does; perhaps I'll try to submit a clarification. =A0As I read it, = it talks about "subverting the logic" of the fetches, which led me to think= the expected hierarchy would be subverted- something like that. =A0 -T --- On Thu, 10/22/09, Glen Barber <glen.j.barber@gmail.com> wrote: From: Glen Barber <glen.j.barber@gmail.com> Subject: Re: bug in pkg_add ? doesn't fetch dependencies from set path To: "Trever" <anti_spamsys@yahoo.com> Cc: freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org Date: Thursday, October 22, 2009, 12:57 PM Hello, On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 2:41 PM, Trever <anti_spamsys@yahoo.com> wrote: > Does anyone else have this problem? > # env | grep PACKAGEPACKAGESITE=3Dftp://ftp.ourdomain.gov/FBSD/# pkg_add = -r subversion-1.6.5Fetching ftp://ftp.ourdomain.gov/FBSD/subversion-1.6.5.t= bz...
