self-built packages don't always install all files

[George Donnelly]

Hi

I maintain my own package repository, served over ftp and I am finding 
that often times a package will not fully get installed on a remote 
host.

For example, if i run pkg_add -r python24 and i know i have just built 
that port's package and it works, sometimes it will only install a few 
of the packages files.

# pkg_info -L python24-2.4.3_3
Information for python24-2.4.3_3:

Files:
/usr/local/man/man1/python.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man1/python2.4.1.gz

python24 has hundreds of files it installs, but only these 2 really got 
installed.

this also happens with php5-session at times.

If i rebuild the package on the package repository host I can ensure 
1-3 good remote installs but after that the problem crops up again.

This gets problematic when you're updating hundreds of hosts.

Has anyone else experienced this? Found what is causing the problem?
