No, I was trying to upgrade from 1.40.12 to 1.40.13 : WRONG! I used "portsnap fetch update", and I saw the new version 1.40.13 : WRONG! I checked again, and current version was 1.40.12 Problem might have been a port having misc/help2man as a dependency needed NLS option to be set? So I rebuilt with portmaster -f misc/help2man and that rebuilt perl-5.16 redundantly. I am still curious how one rebuilds and reinstalls a corrupted port installation when backing up would not be desired. Maybe portmaster -f <port-in-question> ? Tom
