Hello! Why does mergebase.sh not compare files that cause conflicts and deletes, if they are the same? "./lib/X11/fonts/local/fonts.dir" was the same for me in local and X11R6. And then portupgrade with "-P" installed some conflicting ports, because it uses "-f" for package installs: Following UPDATING, I changed portupgrade to portupgrade-devel, but portupgrade reinstalled the non-devel version, probably as a dependency to desktopbsd-tools that got upgraded. gutenprint-base / gimp-gutenprint got installed over gimp-print as a dependency to gimp. Luckily, there was no ghostscript-gpl-8.56_4 package, otherwise it probably would have overwritten ghostscript-gnu. "make install" was wise enough not to do so. This way, there were only many complains about ghostscript-gpl missing. I had both hplip and hpijs installed, because only hplip lists hpijs as conflict but not vice-versa. Of course, portupgrade upgraded both. Not really an issue: portupgrade would not install portaudit over the same version but in a different category. Thus, I still have it in security and not ports-mgmt. I only got some error messages. Regards, Jan Henrik
