Well, there's no linux_devtools-8 because I didn't see the need to ask for a repo copy. The history I wanted was already in the removed linux_devtools port. These combinations should work: - linux_devtools-6 and linux_base-6 - linux_devtools-7 and linux_base - linux_devtools and linux_base-8 Once you choose to install one of the linux_devtools ports, it should bring in the proper linux_base port as a dependency, or warn you of the conflict if you already have another linux_base installed. If I understand you, you only find the naming confusing, right? -- Trevor Johnson
