Hi people,
A day or three ago somebody posted a neat upgrade script
(or snippet of) using a shell for loop and pkg_version.
I was going to save, thought I saved it to ~/Mail/freebsd.
Can't find it. Anybody knw which post I'm thinking of?
It was something like:
for `pkgversion -xyz {foo}`; whatever;
do
portupgrade -abc;
done
but something that was much more sharp. Several days ago I
saved the output of pkg_version -IL'<=' to /tmp/Up.sh, then
edited in portupgrade to each of the 20+ ports. As a result,
I'm almost entirely upgraded here. What I saw looked much more
efficient.
thanks, guys,
gary
