Does it need to be updated? Remember, after installation it does not matter whether it was installed from a port or a package, it's all the same. If the package was the latest version, portmaster will not update it. Possibly the package been locked to prevent changes. > How can I update dovecot? > (Iım mentioning dovecot but in fact there are more programs I have to > update) Mixing pre-built packages with building from ports can be complicated, and it is usually easier to stick with one method.

Sorry to ask the obvious, but does portmaster state that there are updates available for these ports? If the version you've installed from the package repository is the same or newer than that in the ports tree, then of course running `portmaster -a` won't do anything. If portmaster says updates are available but they're not building, then there should be accompanying error messages. -- ================================================================= :: Brandon Wandersee :: :: brandon.wandersee@gmail.com :: ================================================================== 'A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.' - Douglas Adams ==================================================================
