I'll second Mark's recommendation to re-install rather than attempt a source upgrade. Note that, whilst your 4.x ports tree will continue to work with 7.x (assuming you have the relevant compat4x libraries), you will need to do a complete ports rebuild as soon as you upgrade any port (pretty much). (Otherwise, you will wind up linking against different versions of the same system libraries - a recipe for disaster). --=20 Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour. --GZVR6ND4mMseVXL/ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.8 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkgEWXoACgkQ/opHv/APuIfx8wCfYTefdDTY7+EJTFJx9ivJBt92 YzQAn3pIddNJzFbxdRhhNgKaEzEhNOpL =T3Dl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --GZVR6ND4mMseVXL/--
