On Mon Oct 9 21:35:32 EDT 2000 I was looking through the web site and
I noticed a bit of breakage in the ports area. If you navigate down
through the directory listings to

http://www.freebsd.org/ports/misc.html and then click on "amanda" this
URL is created:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports/misc/amanda24/pkg/DESCR

and you get:

------- snip ------------

Port description for misc/amanda24

The port specified does not exist, or has an invalid
name: ports/misc/amanda24/pkg/DESCR 

Please contact www@freebsd.org 

------- snip ------------

If you use the search facility with a URL like:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=amanda&stype=all

and then click on "Description" which has a URL like:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/misc/amanda24/pkg-descr

you get:

------- snip ------------

The port specified does not exist, or has an invalid
name: ports/misc/amanda24/pkg-descr 

Please contact www@freebsd.org 


ports@FreeBSD.org

------- snip ------------


Hmm it just occured to me to check and it seems everything is broken
in the same way - I guess that means there's some updating and changes
going on. If so cat > /dev/null ;-)
