By the way: "portsnap fetch extract update" is pointless: "extract" gives you a clean copy of the last fetched version, and "update" extracts only what has changed since the last extract or update. Use "portsnap fetch extract" once, then "portsnap fetch update" from then on. (Or replace "fetch" with "cron" if you're doing this automatically - it adds a random delay to not overload the servers at popular times of the day.) -- Daniel Nebdal
