++ 04/10/01 12:34 +0100 - Neil Darlow: | Hi, | | I've just upgraded to RELENG_4_4 from RELENG_4_3 and found the | pkg_version utility. | | I've been using this to track package versions since upgrading (after editing | the script to reference the master INDEX file for ports-current). | | Concerned that new package versions didn't appear to be coming, I visited | the ports section of the FreeBSD web site and found that some of my | packages were several weeks out of date. You can always rebuild the index by typing: # cd /usr/ports && make index (note: this might take a bit) | | Is the master INDEX file not being updated on a regular basis for some | reason? I'd guess that Satoshi is just busy lately. -pete -- Pete Fritchman [petef@(databits.net|freebsd.org|csh.rit.edu)] finger petef@databits.net for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
