There must be some miscommunication problem.

I use url2pkg very frequently.

I just reinstalled it again (but no change as I see) and tested again.

It works fine for me using same steps as above.

If you need help, please provide exact step-by-step commands and output of 
your testing. The script tool can help with that.


Anyways, as I said before: don't use url2pkg for this. It is a waste of 
your time. Simple edit the pkgsrc/net/ucarp/Makefile to change the 
version and try "make makesum"
