Although i did a portsnap fet and install i think there are obsolete an old ports still on the disk. I tried to compile a programm and it complained about an older version of a depending package. I deleted the whole ports-dir, did the fetch and extract again, problem persists still. Yes, i searched all the forums and read a lot about managing ports and packages. Right now i am stuck. So, how do i delete really *all* ports and *all* packages at once? Is it possible with doing a fectch and extract having the latest ports? I was recommended to use only portmaster and not to use sysinstall after a finished installation. Well, i dont know. -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/stay-up-to-date-with-ports-and-packages-problem-tp5709999.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
