Hi, all
I am now using portsnap in FreeBSD 6.0 to upgrade ports tree. It is really
much faster than CVSUp. But there is one question that bother me:
I cannot change the WORKDIR that portsnap use.
I have change WORKDIR in /etc/portsnap.conf to /usr/local/portsnap, but
when using 'portsnap fetch', the download files still store
in /var/db/portsnap.
Any suggestions about this? Thanks in advance!
My /etc/portsnap.conf is as follows:
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/portsnap.conf,v 1.1.2.1 2005/08/15 20:24:07 cperciva Exp $
# Default directory where compressed snapshots are stored.
WORKDIR=/usr/local/portsnap
# Default location of the ports tree (target for "update" and "extract").
# PORTSDIR=/usr/ports
# Server or server pool from which to fetch updates. You can change
# this to point at a specific server if you want, but in most cases
# using a "nearby" server won't provide a measurable improvement in
# performance.
SERVERNAME=portsnap.FreeBSD.org
# Trusted keyprint. Changing this is a Bad Idea unless you've received
# a PGP-signed email from <security-officer at FreeBSD.org> telling you to
# change it and explaining why.
