Anyone else see that? Nope. And that port doesn't do anything different with the texinfo files, either. Try just cleaning things up and making another attempt. Or remove all of the auto* ports and try to upgrade everything remaining; I've never had problems with those ports interfering with each other, but for some reason I worry about it anyway. And you may not need any of them for your upgrade run anyway. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
