ruby & portupgrade

[Neal Koss]

I am trying to do an install of portupgrade. As root, I go to
/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade and run
       make install distclean

The system seems to obtain the pkgtools and some upgrades to it, but is
unable to obtain the required bdb1-0.1.8.tar.gz.

I have also looked at the collection at the freebsd site and tried the
ftp site myself
(<ftp://moulon.inra.fr/pub/ruby/bdb1-0.1.8.tar.gz>ftp://moulon.inra.fr/pub/ruby/bdb1-0.1.8.tar.gz)
and also cannot get in for some unknown reason. Is there any way to
obtain this required file?

I also sent this message to knu at freebsd.org who is the maintainer and
hopefully this list or he will answer.

A related, but different question has to do with /stand/sysinstall.
When I use that to try to obtain packages from an ftp site, every site
says that it doesn't have 4.8-STABLE which is the version I am running.
Are the ftp sites not up-to-date?

Thanks...
