I ran a
portupgrade -r glib
and I get this problem with some packages:
===> Installing for liboil-0.3.14
===> liboil-0.3.14 depends on executable: pkg-config - found
===> Generating temporary packing list
===> Checking if devel/liboil already installed
===> An older version of devel/liboil is already installed (liboil-0.3.12)
You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of devel/liboil
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
Why doesn't portupgrade just uninstall and upgrade 'liboil'?
I manually went into devel/liboil and ran:
make deinstall install
Is there a portupgrade flag I am missing? And I don't want my pkg_info to end up with both versions:
liboil-0.3.12
liboil-0.3.14
Thanks,
Rudy
