It looks as if FETCH_PACKAGES does not correctly deal with SUBPACKAGEs. For kdelibs, for instance, it doesn't find the kdecups SUBPACKAGE. > Moreover I have noticed such thing: during kdebase compilation I have > aborted compilation AND KDEBASE HAS NOT BEEN COMPILED SUCCESSFULY. > Then I have made "make install" again and ports quickly installed > kdebase package in ~5 seconds. So why ports first downloaded package This is probably related. When you did the first make install, the code came to the conclusion, that some package was missing, when it actually wasn't. With the next make install the package was installed directly. Thanks for the report, I'll look at this over the weekend. Nikolay
