I have observed this problem on FreeBSD-4.11 with ruby18-bdb1 and FreeBSD-6.1 with ruby18-bdb43. >How-To-Repeat: 1) update ports with cd /usr/src && make update && portsdb -Fu 2) compare output of pkg_version |grep '<' and portversion |grep '<' (the portversion output may show fewer packages to update). 3) upgrade ports with portupgrade -arR which updates all packages listed by pkg_version |grep '<' >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
