Hello!
I've just tempted to follow http://crux.nu/Main/ServerMigration to get an pretty old CRUX2.1 server updated from the old ports collection to the new one.
The ports.prt.tar.gz part works fine but rsync-2.6.7 is not available at samba.org at the mentioned place. It's 2.6.8 now. After updating the Pkgfile and the md5, everything seems to work fine. Thanks for the heads-up.
Can you please update your rsync.prt.tar.gz? Attached are my changes. Maybe it would be a better idea to mirror the source tarball on crux.nu, since at some point 2.6.8 will disappear as well. I'll do that, and change rsync.prt.tar.gz accordingly.
How about fixing this issue once and for all and mirror all the core/opt distfiles somewhere central and doing wget || in pkgmk, perhaps making the mirror configurable? (Or even better, use a simple user-defined function instead of hardcoding wget + arguments in pkgmk...)
