It will select the mirror automatically, so you're seeing it as the download URL, but it's not so, it is just a redirector. > I tried for example with combinations of > > PORTNAME= saga > PORTVERSION= 2.0.4 > DISTNAME= saga_2.0.4_src_linux > MASTER_SITES= > http://sourceforge.net/projects/saga-gis/files/SAGA%20-%202.0/SAGA%202.0.4/ > > but the main problem seems to be the '/download' after the filename. > > Fetching the file by hand works but I have no clue how to describe this > path in the ports Makefile. The following mini-Makefile does the trick for me: ----- PORTNAME= saga PORTVERSION= 2.0.4 DISTNAME= saga_2.0.4_src_linux MASTER_SITES= SF/saga-gis/SAGA%20-%20${PORTVERSION:C/\.[[:digit:]]*$//}/SAGA%20${PORTVERSION}/ CATEGORIES= devel .include <bsd.port.mk> ----- Please, note that the "SF" word is expanded to the full list of the SourceForge mirrors known to the FreeBSD ports subsystem, so you need not to explicitely list any URLs -- just use "SF" for SourceForce mirrors. And the snippet I showed above is yet better rewritten as ----- PORTNAME= saga PORTVERSION= 2.0.4 DISTNAME= saga_2.0.4_src_linux MASTER_SITES= SF MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR= saga-gis/SAGA%20-%20${PORTVERSION:C/\.[[:digit:]]*$//}/SAGA%20${PORTVERSION} CATEGORIES= devel .include <bsd.port.mk> ----- It does the same, but has better semantics. -- Eygene _ ___ _.--. # \`.|\..----...-'` `-._.-'_.-'` # Remember that it is hard / ' ` , __.--' # to read the on-line manual )/' _/ \ `-_, / # while single-stepping the kernel. `-'" `"\_ ,_.-;_.-\_ ', fsc/as # _.-'_./ {_.' ; / # -- FreeBSD Developers handbook {_.-``-' {_/ #
