I try to install texlive with "install textlive" and then it tries to download texlive_texmf-minimal-2007g0.tar.gz from several servers, but no one seems to have the file:

Seems fine here. There should be more working OpenBSD mirrors in the next MacPorts release BTW. If you can't get it to work in the meantime, try the workaround given in ProblemHotlist.

ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/distfiles has the file. Note that it is a large download (150 MB) and what you interpret as 'not having the file' may be 'is slowly downloading the file without telling me' (which is the normal way if you don't use the -d switch).

I've just had this issue. Downloading in Australia was fluctuating between 1-4K/sec. On a machine in the US, I was able to download the same at ~300K/sec. The download from this machine back to my Mac was at around 2M/sec.

Could the OpenBSD mirrors be rate limiting international access?
