archivers/xz is mark IGNORE because xz is now in the base system (8.2) Numerous other ports won't build because they believe they depend on xz (or on a port that depends on xz) I'd like to remove the dependencies on xz from the pkgs database. pkgdb -s /xz-5.0.0// won't work as the slash notation might suggest it would because -s does not accept a 'empty argument' I am afraid to remove the xz package because it seems to me it would delete the base system xz -- and I don't want to make world if I can avoid it. Is there some sensible way to do this? -- Lars Eighner http://www.larseighner.com/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266
