Up graded an old laptop from 10.1 to 11.0-p10. I then checked out the latest quarterly ports. I figured that FreeBSD would barf and I was not disappointed. Built the ports with synth and then I installed them, xorg promptly shit itself. So I typed pkg autoremove just for shits and giggles. Before the upgrade pkg autoremove did nothing ( nothing to remove ) the latest pkg wanted to remove all of Xorg and some other things but not remove lumina. Figure that one out. Working on figuring this out. Can you tell me why FreeBSD doesn't need versioned ports again? I am just looking for something that works, I don't need the last version of xyz that just came off the press. Thinking I may need to leave FreeBSD and find something that is stable/works. An upgrade from a recent version should not requir days to weeks to get it to work.
