I do it on a regula= r=20 basis on my experiment boxes... Or are you talking about the whole OS? Th= at=20 would be a bit extreme, I think. I'm using 6.2s right now and am not having any problems with it at all, and= I=20 cvsup and portupgrade fairly regular. Before depopulating pkgdb, try=20 installing the portupgrade port, then cvsup, refetch the index file, and ru= n=20 your portupgrade -a. You can list the ports that need upgrading by using=20 the 'portversion | grep ">" | more' command. portupgrade will _only insta= ll=20 those listed if you tell it to 'portupgrade -aRrv' =20 If the problem still exists, and linking the file doesn't work, then mayhap= s a=20 reinstall of all the ports is necessary (I just don't see how unless you've= =20 specifically done something in your build options that put a ripple in the= =20 carpet).
