Yes. The only ports tree which is kept up to date is for -current. A good number of them will work anyway on -stable, some of them need only minor tweaking, and some of them are nearly impossible to make work. It is quite unfortunate that things are that way but, right now, that's the way it is. On Sat, 2 Nov 1996, Jason Bennett wrote: > > Do the latest ports depend on the -current branch?
