Then use handbook for building and installing http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/makeworld.html You'll also want to do something like the following from portmaster man page. Using portmaster to do a complete reinstallation of all your ports: 1. portmaster --list-origins > ~/installed-port-list 2. Update your ports tree 3. portmaster --clean-distfiles-all 4. portmaster --check-port-dbdir 5. portmaster -Faf 6. pkg_delete '*' 7. rm -rf /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg 8. Manually check /usr/local and /var/db/pkg to make sure that they are really empty 9. portmaster `cat ~/installed-port-list` You probably want to use the -D option for the installation and then run --clean-distfiles[-all] again when you are done. You might also want to consider using the --force-config option when installing the new ports= . --=20 Adam Vande More
