Message-ID: <20001025141310.A75671@blackhelicopters.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'd like to install xf86-4, simply because my machine is performing too well and I need some system disruptions to improve my sysadmin skills. xf86-3 was installed at sysinstall. Therefore, there's no entry in /var/db/pkg. Can I safely write xf86-4 over xf86-3, or do I need to go through and manually delete the xf86-3 files? Is there an easy way to do that?
