Things seem to be getting worse. Looking at /var/db/pkgs, it seems that, somehow, multiple versions of several ports have been installed. e.g., glib-1.2.10_3 glib-1.2.10_4 and three different versions of freetype2, and so on. I'm pkg_delete'ing and building piecemeal, but is there a way to do an audit, delete obsolete ports, recompile anything "suspicious", etc.? It seems like portupgrade should be able to do this, but I'm not seeing how from the manuals (and when I do try it, it seems to believe there is nothing to do, not even for ports that I've seen updated from cvs moments earlier. hawk, more and more baffled -- What part of "non-negotiable" didn't you understand? /"\ ASCII ribbon campaign dochawk@psu.edu Smeal 178 (814) 375-4700 \ / against HTML mail These opinions will not be those of X and postings.
