Has anyone informed the www/doc team that the link to 40upgrade.tgz is broken from http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html? I'm also a bit confused by what is discussed above. Will makes it sound like a 4.0-REL system needs both 40upgrade.tgz AND 41upgrade.tgz, which to me doesn't sound correct - 40upgrade.tgz should move a 4.0-REL system up to 4-STABLE (as of date of downloading the upgrade kit) as far as ports are concerned, and not requires two upgrade kits. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
