Okay, this is weird. I even edited
/usr/pkgsrc/mk/[bsd.pkg.mk|bsd.pkg.defaults.mk] directly to add
/usr/bin/ftp -A to the FETCH_CMD?= lines. Still no go, and ftp just
won't fall back to active mode per the behavior described in
Packages.txt.
There's a config file I'm missing, but the only file I've found with
/usr/bin/ftp defined is /usr/pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk. What's the read
precedence for the various .mk files? My guess is /etc/mk.conf -->
/usr/pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.defaults.mk --> /usr/pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk. Are
there any others?
