The following reply was made to PR ports/35459; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Vivek Khera <vivek@khera.org> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: ports/35459: portupgrade doesn't clean up dependencies prior to repackaging packages Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 11:05:18 -0400 It seems to me that the right thing to do would be to use pkg_tarup to repackge the existing packages that were not just rebuilt. This way the packages get the proper dependencies. As it is now, the repackaged packages are useless as they try to pull in all kinds of older unavailable packages. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
