here's my situation... the last few months i've been cvsup'ing my ports with
the '.' tag instead of RELENG_4. It was working beautifully untill last week
when i got:

> cd /usr/ports/www/p5-Apache-ASP
> make install
===>  p5-Apache-ASP-0.18 : Your system is too old to use this bsd.port.mk.
You n
eed a fresh make world or an upgrade kit. Please go to
http://www.FreeBSD.org/po
rts/ or a mirror site and follow the instructions.

this error msg would show up when trying to install any port. So i rm -rf
/usr/ports and extracted a new copy from the ports.tar.gz file i used for
the original then added the RELENG_4 tag in the supfile. I proceeded to
cvsup and during the process it would delete the INDEX, Makefile, and mk dir
then proceed to upgrade the ports. So after cvsup'n i'm left with none of
the files it deleted make it impossible now to make search or do a
pkg_version -c to check which ports need to be upgraded. Anyone know whats
happening here?

Thanks,
Ryan Masse
