Did anyone find a pkgsrc path that can be used for Fedora or Ubuntu? Only thing would be to build the packages from source unless I can find a binary repository to use with pkgsrc.

Because of this I can't search or install anything, I keep getting the same error. I've looked online and I'm using the right syntax, not sure what's going on. This is on AMI ami-5347a13a.

Using the AMI for Ubuntu (2nd on list) however, I can't find the package for 'screen'  or 'sipcalc' the other ones were all already installed with newest versions. I've run 'apt-get update' and I've searched 'apt-cache' but it can't find either screen or sipcalc. I've checked online and those packages should be part of standard Ubuntu sources list. Do we need to go in and modify the sources list? Anybody have luck installing these 2 packages on ami-19a34270?
