>Description:
I tried building a couple of ports using the "make" command, those being "unrealIRCd" and its dependancy, and "nano" I was met with a looping compiler, I am new to FreeBSD so I didn't know it was looping till I watched it 5 hours later. I tried to just get the package and work from there, I used the pkg_add command and was unable to retrieve the package from your servers with both nano and unrealIRCd. I had to manually connect then download the packages to the directorys I wanted them in. Keep in mind this release is freshly installed as of 22 hours ago straight from the 7.0 CD I downloaded from your ftp site. If its relevent I'm using a SUN netra x1
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to make any port or "pkg_add -r" any package.
