Yes. The ports tree is not branched. Ports are expected to work properly for HEAD (CURRENT) and RELENG_3 (STABLE), as well as releases taken off the latter branch. > Will the most current ports work with stable or do I need to go to > freebsd-current?

Probably just a problem with lsof, which has to know quite a lot about the kernel. Later, Sheldon.
