Now it appears to be churning :)
Thank you both Mario & Warren for your help. I get the warning that
PACKAGESITE in pkg.conf is deprecated. Please create a repository
configuration file
But a site
http://networkedblogs.com/RurUw
states add the followng:
cp /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf.sample /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf
I shall try this advice and see if the warning goes away.
On 8.4-RELEASE is it advised to move to pkgng? It will be EOL'd when?
I have moved to pkgng on 9.2 machines, but for 8.4 it may not be
plausible?
Thanks for all your help.
Best Regards,
Antonio
