>Description:
Hi,

I just installed FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE (base install).
Right after that I wanted to update my ports collection, so I ran `pkg_add -r cvsup'. Cvsup and some dependencies installed fine, but when I tried `cvsup -g -L 2 ~/cvsup/ports' I got a message 'cvsup: command not found'. Running `which cvsup' said the same, but `ls /usr/local/bin' did show cvsup, and /usr/local/bin was in my path. I had to log out and log back in again to be able to run cvsup.

cheers,
Rob
