The build succeeds, but I get an odd error when portupgrade tries to uninstall the old version before it installs the new version. ====> Compressing man pages (compress-man) ---> Backing up the old version ---> Uninstalling the old version [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 1383 packages found - done] ---> Deinstalling '2ManDVD-1.8.5' [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 1383 packages found - done] ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) ! 2ManDVD-1.8.5 (invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII) ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) ! multimedia/2mandvd (2ManDVD-1.8.5) (uninstall error) I don't see any issues if I do a manual deinstallation using "pkg delete", and then reinstalling the port works fine. # pkg delete 2ManDVD-1.8.5 Updating database digests format: 100% Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting) Deinstallation has been requested for the following 1 packages (of 0 packages in the universe): Installed packages to be REMOVED: 2ManDVD-1.8.5 The operation will free 31 MB.
