Our main repository pkg.ghostbsd.org, which is on , has hit its download quota for June. In the last 7 days, there was an unusual influx of package downloads.

From here, we are unsure what to do. In the meantime, in `/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/` there are a couple of mirror files. Copy a `GhostBSD.conf.*` file as `GhostBSD.conf` in `/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/` and it will override the system default.

I will keep you posted.
