Hi list, I searched for this in the handbook, but without any hits. Google gave me nada too. I have a machine running FreeBSD 7.3 and Postfix 2.7.2 installed from ports. Unfortunately when I installed Postfix I did this: cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix make install clean Now when Postfix 2.8.0 is released the above path in the ports tree points to a Postfix version I do not yet want to install. I would like to follow Postfix 2.7.x for a while. So my question is: How can I make the ports system act as if I had installed Postfix like this?: cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix27 make install clean Is there a way to tell the ports database to "follow" and older version of Postfix without rebuild the entire port again? TIA, Mikael
