Hello,
since several days now I receive on FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT/amd64 boxes
this message:
--
Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap1.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching snapshot metadata... done.
look: tINDEX.new: File too large
Portsnap metadata appears bogus.
Cowardly refusing to proceed any further.

It came out of nowhere while I was updating the same day (it was
Thursday or Friday last week) successfully on the same boxes.
I didn't find anything about such an error in the list or on the web,
so I'm confused. On FreeBSD 9.0-BETA3 at a box besides one of the
failing ones everything run smooth.
I already deleted /var/db/portsnap and tried to recreate everything. I
checked the clock (some similar weird errors reported problems with a
clock gain). But everything is all right - execpt that FBSD 9.0 works,
and 10.0 not.
Thanks in advance,
Oliver
