If your internet is not very slow or on a data limit then it is harmless to delete their content. The files will get downloaded when they are needed again. You sound to me like you moved the content of /usr/ports to another place per file or per directory. I hope you did something like this. mv /usr/ports /usr/ports-old svn checkout svn+ssh://svn.freebsd.org/ports/head /usr/ports This will restore a complete and consistent ports directory. And you don't need the reminders, etc. Regards, Ronald.
