>Description:
The FTP site (ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org) does not have the ports tree --
/pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports does not exist. This is a
problem because if someone wants to update one file in one port,
using the FTP site is much more efficient than an entire CVSup.
>How-To-Repeat:
FTP to ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports and attempt to cd to
ports. It will fail because the ports symlink points to a non-existent
directory.
>Fix:
Load the ports tree back onto the FTP site.
