Anyway, when outputting the path to a package that is 'unknown in index', the path is the path of the package previously processed. For example, after showing the info, the pathname is obviously the path to mc (/usr/ports/misc/mc). The next entry is mergemaster. While the command to update is correct, the script outputs 'cd /usr/ports/misc/mc' and attempts to make megermaster from that location, which obviously will not work. Has anyone else seen this? I just cvsupped today and it hasn't been fixed, if it truly is a bug. -=> jm <=- "The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you have burned so very, very brightly."
