Dear all, I have observed the following behavior in portupgrade: The operation portugrade -a results in a repetitive rebuild of the package database whenever the database is accessed. [Updating the pkgdb <format:dbm_hash> in /var/db/pkg ... Inappropriate file type or format - /var/db/pkg/pkgdb; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:dbm_hash> in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... done] ---> Backing up the old version [Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... done] ---> Uninstalling the old version [Updating the pkgdb <format:dbm_hash> in /var/db/pkg ... Inappropriate file type or format - /var/db/pkg/pkgdb; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:dbm_hash> in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) ...................................................................................................... Is this a bug or a feature ? What can be done to suppress this behavior of portupgrade -a ? Thanks, Arno _________________________________________________________________ Die Vielfalt der Optionen lässt Sie im Internet erfolgreich recherchieren. http://search.msn.at/
