If you did, many of your ports won't longer work properly (or at all) because of missing libraries. If you didn't, you definitely should do something like 'portupgrade -afrRi' and after you done, you can get rid of these old files with commands above. Of course it could take VERY long time depending on installed ports and machine spec., so if you just need to get your sources updated quickly I recommend: 1. Try csup instead of cvsup. It's integrated in both 8.x and in CURRENT, so should work "out of the box" 2. If you (for some strange reasons) want to stick to cvsup, you'll probably make it work again by portupgrade -fR 'cvsup*' 3. another approach is to get cvsup binaries from package instead of compiling ports - check man pkg_add 4. If you need cvsup to update ports tree, try portsnap instead. It's faster and smarter, and integrated with system :) - check man portsnap Good luck! -- Bartosz Stec
