What's the directory structure like in your PACKAGESITE ? If it's the
standard layout obtained eg. by creating /usr/ports/packages then the
following sort of structure should be automatically created:
% cd /usr/ports/packages
% find . -type d
=2E
=2E/print
=2E/pear
=2E/archivers
=2E/textproc
=2E/net
=2E/misc
=2E/graphics
=2E/mail
=2E/All <<--------****
=2E/devel
=2E/java
=2E/security
=2E/editors
=2E/www
=2E/ports-mgmt
=2E/ftp
=2E/converters
=2E/python
=2E/x11-toolkits
=2E/x11
=2E/Latest <<---------****
=2E/x11-fonts
=2E/perl5
=2E/deskutils
=2E/tk
=2E/net-im
=2E/ipv6
=2E/net-mgmt
=2E/lang
=2E/geography
=2E/portmaster-download
=2E/gnome
=2E/dns
=2E/databases
=2E/sysutils
=2E/math
=2E/audio
viz. directories mirroring each port category (created when you build a
package from a port in one of those categories) plus the two indicated
extras. (Well, and the one portmaster uses for its backups.) 'All' just
contains a copy of every package you build. 'Latest' however contains
links to the latest version of each package, like so:
% ls -1 ap*
ap22-mod_perl2.tbz@
apache22.tbz@
apg.tbz@
apr-ipv6-devrandom-db48-pgsql90.tbz@
apr-ipv6-devrandom-db48-pgsql91.tbz@
where...
% ls -l apache22.tbz
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 24 Dec 23 17:51 apache22.tbz@ ->
=2E./All/apache-2.2.21.tbz
This is what the LATEST_LINK variable mentioned earlier in the thread is
all about.
Point PACKAGESITE at the /usr/ports/packages/Latest and it should work
as you require.
Cheers,
Matthew
