--nextPart2752852.Q0bIxBjXkV Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Hi, I've got a question about portupgrade and something that's happened wit= h=20 it a couple of times now. The last 2 times libgda has been upgraded, I've r= un=20 portupgrade -a to upgrade a bunch of ports, including libgda. The libgda upgrade has caused a re-install of mysql-client-4, but when=20 portupgrade has tried to install mysql-client, it's failed because=20 mysql-client is already installed. The workaround for this is simple enough, delete mysql-client and then run= =20 portupgrade again, but I'm wondering why this situation occurs - portupgrad= e=20 should see that mysql-client is already installed and not try to install it= =20 again (or if it needs upgrading, it should deinstall the old version and=20 build & install the new version). /etc/ports/UPDATING doesn't seem to help, there's no mention of either port= in=20 it.=20 Perhaps my ports db is screwed up?
