I have an older, but basically clean, install of 8.2 on a production =
system.  It has a few ports that were installed back when 8.2 was new.  =
However, I need to add pdftk.  Pkg_add did that nicely.  HOwever, it =
added version 1.44.  The history for pdftk shows that a major problem =
was fixed in 1.45 and I am encountering that problem and need to =
upgrade.  Portupgrade pdftk does nothing.  It seems to decide that the =
latest version is 1.44.  However, on a 9.2 system, I get a much higher =
version number.  Is there any way to determine if 1.44 is the latest =
version that will run with 8.2 or is there another way I need to upgrade =
to ports files?  Its my understanding that cvsup is no longer with us.
