Re: Heads up: Binary packages updated

Hi Justin,

The listing of Avalon's i368/2.7/stable/All:

http://avalon.dragonflybsd.org/packages/i386/DragonFly-2.7/stable/All/

 Name                                 Last modified      Size  Description

      pkg_summary.gz                       11-Aug-2010 00:24  1.1K  

Seems to be a little bit short...

Is it still in progress? Or am I waiting in a wrong place?

The 'stable' links for binary packages on avalon now point at
pkgsrc-2010Q2.  This means pkg_radd will pull from a newer batch of
packages.

Watch out - some of the newer packages will have newer dependencies, so
you may be in for some number of upgrades to use these newer binary
packages.

If you keep a /usr/pkgsrc to match those binary packages (and you should
if you are using them), you'll want to update it to match pkgsrc-2010Q2,
also. Change /usr/pkgsrc/CVS/Tag to have 2010Q2 in it and 'cvs update -dP'
is one way to do it.
