Previously someone mentioned PRE_XORG7, because of the typo I could not find any info on this. It's weird that cvsweb.freebsd.org exists, whil searching for "cvsweb" in the Search box on www.freebsd.org comes up with nothing. Searching for PRE_XORG_7 also comes up with nothing. It looks like the search function is completely broken. That put me on the wrong track. Because of my background I probably should not say it, but have you considered using Google search for freebsd.org? Now that I now the tag name I can also search for it on http://www.google.com/bsd You can add "site:freebsd.org" and you have a perfect replacement for the www.freebsd.org Search box! So now I was finally able to update nspluginwrapper. In case you are interested, this is what I did: - cvsup ports-all with the PRE_XORG_7 tag - cvsup ports-www with the "." tag to get the updated www/nspluginwrapper - Try running "portupgrade nspluginwrapper". This fails because for unclear reasons it checks for /usr/X11R6/libdata/xorg/libraries and starts installing X11. Cancel this. - "mkdir /usr/X11R6/libdata/xorg/libraries" - "portupgrade nspluginwrapper" works! -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 247. You use www.switchboard.com instead of dialing 411 and 555-12-12 for directory assistance. /// Bram Moolenaar -- Bram@Moolenaar.net -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ download, build and distribute -- http://www.A-A-P.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org ///
