Hello!

My systems says:

FreeBSD michelle.esfm.ipn.mx 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #0: Wed Jun 20 
15:14:14 CDT 2007     root at michelle.esfm.ipn.mx:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/eviruena  i386

I would like to install gnome BUT I CANNOT FIND IT.

If I try:

      pkg_add -r gnome2

I get:

michelle:/home/mrspock> pkg_add -r gnome2
Error: FTP Unable to get 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/Latest/gnome2.tbz: 
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch 
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/Latest/gnome2.tbz' 
by URL

the same thing happends if I try:  gnome, gnome2, etc.

Is there a way of installing gnome2 without compiling it from the ports?

(of course, I have the FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE discs but they are outdated,
the dependences are completely different from the ones used in 6.2-STABLE)

Thanks in advance.

 	Eduardo.
