Hi,

I'm trying to install some packages that were built on a production
machine onto a similar test machine for the purposes of later
performing a portupgrade -a on the test machine before upgrading
the production machine. After rsyncing /usr/ports and /usr/src from
one to the other, I begin. However, when I try to perform a pkg_add
(in /usr/ports/packages/All) I get:

test# pkg_add -n OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24.tbz
Requested space: 93972 bytes, free space: 56188190720 bytes in /var/tmp/instmp.mlX53E
Package 'OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24' depends on 'expat-1.95.8' with 'textproc/expat2' origin.
and was not found.
Package 'OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24' depends on 'pkgconfig-0.15.0_1' with 'devel/pkgconfig' origin.
and was not found.
Package 'OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24' depends on 'freetype2-2.1.7_4' with 'print/freetype2' origin.
and was not found.
Package 'OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24' depends on 'fontconfig-2.2.3,1' with 'x11-fonts/fontconfig' origin.
and was not found.
Package 'OpenSSH-askpass-1.2.2.2001.02.24' depends on 'xorg-libraries-6.8.1_1' with 'x11/xorg-libraries' origin.
and was not found.
pkg_add: 1 package addition(s) failed

but the files are there, and their origins are ok:

test# ls fontconfig-2.2.3,1.tbz expat-1.95.8.tbz pkgconfig-0.15.0_1.tbz fontconfig-2.2.3,1.tbz xorg-libraries-6.8.1_1.tbz
expat-1.95.8.tbz fontconfig-2.2.3,1.tbz fontconfig-2.2.3,1.tbz pkgconfig-0.15.0_1.tbz xorg-libraries-6.8.1_1.tbz

for example:

test# pkg_info -o expat-1.95.8.tbz
Information for expat-1.95.8.tbz:

Origin:
textproc/expat2

How can this be? I've set PKG_PATH, but that shouldn't be necessary
as I'm in the same directory. I don't want to run portinstall - the
point is to get the test machine running first with the currently
installed apps, not newer ones.

thanks,
joel
