Hi, I have been using FreeBSD for some time now, and kind of figured out how the ports system functions. In order to administrate my system I am using portupgrade, which works very well for me. However lately I have also used Perl CPAN to install some perl modules. When I get a list of the packages I need to upgrade (portversion -l \<) these packages also shows up - why? Example: bash-2.05b# portversion -l \< bsdpan-URI < When I try to upgrade them with portupgrade I get an error telling that the port is held by user: bash-2.05b# portupgrade bsdpan-URI ** The port 'net/p5-URI' is held by user. ---> Skipping 'net/p5-URI' (specify -f to force) Could anyone tell me whats going on? Best regards, Michael Birkmose
