Ah. Sorry for not reading your mail carefully. I'm not sure why this should happen. I'm running 3.4-STABLE and my ports tree works fine. Are you sure it's upgrading the ports tree, however -- ie do you see the "updating" messages? IIRC, the tag= line is different for the source and ports supfiles, so using the same supfile for both shouldn't work. > Is there a way I can specify what version of ports I want for my release > version? There is only one ports tree. As a result there are a few breakages, I believe, but most of them seem to work on 3.x still. Rahul.
