The version of portmanager I was using when I experienced the problem was definitely 0.3.3_2; I verified the version when I saw it was misbehaving. And although this is somewhat belated, here's the uname -a output on the affected system: FreeBSD hobbit.emerald-associates.com 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #0: Wed Nov 9 04:09:55 MST 2005 root@hobbit.emerald-associates.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HOBBIT i386 After portmanager failed to work properly with cvs2svn, I did not attempt to use it to delete any other ports, so cvs2svn is the only case I know wasn't working. I used pkg_delete to delete cvs2svn instead, so I can not verify the operation of the updated portmanager by using it to delete that port. However, I just upgraded to the latest version of portmanager (0.3.4) and tested it against a different package and it worked properly. Unless you receive other problem reports, I'd call the issue resolved. Thanks for the speedy response. -- Danny MacMillan
