I have been having terrible problems lately with portupgrade dumping core and gnome2 not wanting to build or run on my box. I'm thinking of wiping the drive and doing a clean installation of 4.10, installing packages for what I want, and then cvsupping the ports tree to get the latest versions of thunderbird and firefox. Would there be any problem doing that? I'm thinking I could just use portupgrade on a fresh installation to avoid the coredumps and by limiting the STABLE ports installation to just the 2 I listed I can keep everything from breaking like it is now. jm --
