next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I'm currently trying to figure out which kind of distfile is the lesser
evil for a particular port:
- Getting the distfile from the comp.sources.misc archives. This is
ugly, since the actual part01.{Z,gz} differs from archive to archive
(-> no MD5 checksum).
Also, should shar archives be extracted with gunshar (-> dependency)
or piped straight into sh?
- A nice tarball is available from the distfiles area of
ftp.{net,open}bsd.org (as well as ftp.debian.org and mirrors).
However, these aren't original archive sites.
- MASTER_SITE_LOCAL
