Any remaining users should _not_ get this or any subsequent updates. Then I found this announcement: http://www.freebsd.org/portmgr/policies_releng_4.html What does that boil down to in end user English? I can't build things in ports if I'm running 4.11, or that I should never try to update packages from ports in 4.11? --Donald
