Update to -CURRENT for an all-around nicer experience (like, modules, like, cvsup, like, everything). There are even snapshots available from sesnap - check the recent archives of this list. For -CURRENT, there is a cvsup package that you can just pkg_add -r. For -KLUNKY, er, 5.2.1, there is a cvsup package that you can just pkg_add -r with the right PACKAGESITE - to find out which PACKAGESITE, search the archives of this list for messages concerned with cvsup (it's somewhere on David O'Brien's webpages, IIRC). > What's up with CVSUP?

Get sesnap, that's fastest. -- Adriaan de Groot adridg@cs.kun.nl Kamer A6020 024-3652272 GPG Key Fingerprint 934E 31AA 80A7 723F 54F9 50ED 76AC EE01 FEA2 A3FE http://www.cs.kun.nl/~adridg/research/ Because the university is dead-set on shooting itself in the foot and changing its name to something obscure and unpronounceable, all my personal stuff is moving to fruitsalad.org.
