#14621: kermit failed fetch ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: jbaldwin@antinode.net | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Updates Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: worksforme | Keywords: ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Comment (by jay-macports@shopwatch.org): I ran into this "problem" too; turns out that I was blocking FTP at the firewall, and it's that FTP fetch from kermit.columbia.edu that's critical. I suspect that those of us installing kermit are slightly more likely to be doing so in some desperate network circumstance that needs a serial port - to, say, configure a firewall... Hopefully this helps the next person. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/14621#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
