When i try to download and install a cvsup-package it says

> pkg_add -r cvsup
Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/cvsup.tbz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/cvsup.tbz'

It seems like I can't connect to the ftp from there either. I can
however download the files using my opera-browser. Where should I put
it to make it work? Now when I just tried putting it in my
user-catalogue this is what was said:

> pkg_add cvsup-16.1h_2.tbz
