I think this is how I did it. cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portdowngrade make DEFAULT_CVS_SERVER=3D\=E2=80=9D:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.at.FreeBSD.org= :/home/ncvs\=E2=80=9D=20 clean install Then portdowngrade linux-realplayer will begin the process. Or you can specify the cvs server when invoking=20 portdowngrade: portdowngrade -s:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs1.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs All that is under the man page for portdowngrade.=20 portdowngrade then goes through the ports tree in reverse chronological ord= er,=20 assigning a number to each one, and giving for each a little bit of the por= t=20 description that also pops up in freshports.org (if you wanted more detail = on=20 the old versions, look there). Once it gives you the first page of the list= ,=20 will give you a second page, will give you a prompt at=20 which you enter the number of the version to revert to. Once portdowngrade = is=20 done, portupgrade -f linux-realplayer will install the version you specified. The man page concludes "that the ne= xt cvsup will set the port back to its head revision!"
