    Hello
    Im trying to install gnome2 via pkg_add -r since the port install
    gave me an error half way through. So when I type:
    pkg_add -r gnome2
    I get:
    Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/
    packages-5.3-release/Latest/gnome2.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file
    not found, no access)

    pkg_add: unable to fetch 'tp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/
    packages-5.3-release/Latest/gnome2.tbz' by URL

    I can ftp to the freeBSD site but im jut not sure what pkg to get...
    any idea why my pkg_add -r doesnt work? (it seems to be the same for
    any pkg i try to add)
    Im using 5.3
    Thanks
    Eoghan
