And I t= hink gcc bootstrap will be more complicated that a simple pkg/create.

Hi, with= the hope to port a (complex) tool to plan9 I've found this
interesting repo with an updated ape + gcc + some other useful
tools...

http://marcus.biz= .tm/files/

I tried to set the pkgpath to that url but pkg/list only show the two
packages named ".tbz2" (lighthttp and m4).

I noted that all files in http://9front.org/pkg/386/ are tbz.

I'd like to know if (and how) I could install the tar.gz and tar.bz2 packages from that repo or I have to manually download them, repackage
as with pkg/create and then install from a local pkgpath.


Thanks for your help!


Giacomo
