Here is what my nmap directory looks like. Makefile files pkg-descr distinfo pkg-comment pkg-plist I'm assuming yours looks similar. Here is what my /usr/ports/Mk looks like. bsd.emacs.mk bsd.port.post.mk bsd.ruby.mk bsd.gnome.mk bsd.port.pre.mk bsd.sites.mk bsd.kde.mk bsd.port.subdir.mk bsd.port.mk bsd.python.mk Do you have these files? When I did a make world it also rebuilt /usr/share/mk. I don't think upgrading the ports will do this. The dates on all the files in this directory are very recent, but earlier than my ports.
