Hi, ~ $ host ftp.freebsd.org ftp.freebsd.org has address 204.152.184.73 ftp.freebsd.org has address 62.243.72.50 ftp.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:6c8:6:4::7 ftp.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:0:2::e ~ $ echo -e "dir mathopd*\nquit" | ftp ftp://204.152.184.73/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/All/ Connected to 204.152.184.73. 220 Welcome to freebsd.isc.org. ... -rw-r--r-- 1 110 1002 56584 Jan 24 06:20 mathopd-1.5p6.tbz ~ $ echo -e "dir mathopd*\nquit" | ftp ftp://62.243.72.50/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/All/ Connected to 62.243.72.50. 220 ftp.FreeBSD.org NcFTPd Server (licensed copy) ready. ... -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpusers 56520 Nov 4 14:48 mathopd-1.5p6.tbz Different sizes, different dates. The November variant is broken (installed package crashes at first connection), the January variant works. I.e. half of users get the broken variant from ftp.FreeBSD.org. Local mirrors contain the broken variant. http://www.freshports.org/www/mathopd lists last commit on August 13, 2007. How, why different variants?
