Today I tried upgrading python to its most recent version. I made sure version 2.5 is mentioned in distinfo file and then issued portupgrade. I was not really convinced from the initial screen that my box was going to get the latest release but anyway the upgrade process stopped in the middle (most likely because I was remotely connected and my wLAN connection suddenly died for a second). So I tried again but got "** No such installed package: lang/python" response. When I do python -V, I get Python 2.4.3. And luckilly python is still there as my mailman needs it. I used cvusp to refresh ports collection and tried portupgrade again but with the same error message. For one, I am not worried since current python clearly works but could you please suggest if/how I should made the system available for a python upgrade? Thank you very much in advance!
