I ran pkg_info to get a list of dependent apps and then piped that into xargs portmaster, but I got errors. # cat dependencies.txt | xargs portmaster ===>>> /var/db/pkg/Information does not exist ===>>> Aborting update ===>>> Killing background jobs Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated ===>>> Exiting So how can I fix this problem without updating to the new pkg system? -- Paul Schmehl (pauls@utdallas.edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/infosecurity/
