Unable to install packages on new installation
I've installed 6.6 release on another Thinkpad x220. The install went with no problem but when I try to use pkg_add I get the following:
pkg_add -vvv htop https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/...stable/amd64/: ftp:connect: Invalid argument https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/...ckages/amd64/: ftp:connect: Invalid argument https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/...ckages/amd64/: empty Can't find htop Can't load quirk: Can't locate OpenBSD/quirks.pm in @INC (you may need to install the OpenBSD:: Quirks module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/libdata/perl5/site_perl/amd64-openbsd /usr/local/libdata/perl5/site_perl /usr/libdata/perl5/amd64-openbsd /usr/libdata/perl5) at /usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/AddDelete.pm line 350 Unfortunately, I know nothing about perl or installing modules. I've also never had to do this before after installing OpenBSD. Any help will be appreciated. |

It appears (from what was posted) that there is a network problem with your connection to your nearest CDN. Temporarily, use another mirror near you, setting a PKG_PATH environment variable to the appropriate URL, as described in the pkg_add(1) man page. The complete list of mirrors is found at http://www.openbsd.org/ftp.html
If that works, then you can make the selected mirror permanent, if you wish, by editing your installurl(5) file. |

Thank you, jggimi. This is the second time you've helped me out. Or is it the third?
As always, it is appreciated. |
