Hi Mike, I see from my digging around that you are the author of portmanager, so I hope its ok to send questions in your direction. I have KDE installed as a package, and I assume that its dependency openldap also came as part of the package. Can I use portmanager to upgrade the package ? Also, can I select just one, eg KDE. When I did portmanager -s it ran through all the ports (packages ?) that I installed. I am new to this, and am still confused about the difference between ports and packages. (confused about what I can upgrade in a package that came as a package compared to a package that came from a port) Thanks Peter
