Hi First of all i just went through the UPDATING instructions to upgrade my xorg to 7.2. It did not go very well because i can't finish the upgrade process. When i try to pkg_delete xorg-manpages it says they're required by the xorg-6.9 port. Now as far as i can see everything i'm running is in /usr/local and X -version says 7.2 everywhere. But there are still some 6.9 ports left and i can't tell the difference between which ones i can delete and which ones i'm supposed to keep. # pkg_info | grep xorg xorg-6.9.0 X.Org distribution metaport xorg-apps-7.2 X.org apps meta-port xorg-cf-files-1.0.2_2 X.org cf files for use with imake builds xorg-clients-6.9.0_2 X client programs and related files from X.Org xorg-docs-1.3,1 X.org documentation files xorg-documents-6.9.0 Documentation of X11 protocol and libraries from X.Org xorg-drivers-7.2 X.org drivers meta-port xorg-fonts-100dpi-6.9.0_1 X.Org 100dpi bitmap fonts xorg-fonts-7.2 X.org fonts meta-port xorg-fonts-75dpi-6.9.0_1 X.Org 75dpi bitmap fonts xorg-fonts-cyrillic-6.9.0_1 X.Org Cyrillic bitmap fonts xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps-6.9.0_1 X.Org miscellaneous bitmap fonts xorg-fonts-truetype-6.9.0 X.Org TrueType fonts xorg-fonts-type1-6.9.0 X.Org Type1 fonts xorg-fontserver-6.9.0_1 X font server from X.Org xorg-libraries-7.2_2 X.org libraries meta-port xorg-manpages-6.9.0 X.Org library manual pages xorg-nestserver-6.9.0 Nesting X server from X.Org xorg-printserver-6.9.0 X Print server from X.Org xorg-protos-7.2 X.org protos meta-port xorg-server-1.2.0_2,1 X.Org X server and related programs xorg-server-6.9.0_1 X.Org X server and related programs xorg-vfbserver-6.9.0 X virtual framebuffer server from X.Org This is what it looks like after the upgrade. Also i'm not sure where to go for help with portupgrade but here seems like a good place to start. Now after i've run portupgrade -aP for the first time i tried to run it again just to see what it missed because i can't say the process progressed without errors, there were tons of them. Though this time i starts with a port i don't even have installed, gutenprint-base. It does not exist in /var/db/pkg, pkg_info doesn't find it and i can't make deinstall in the ports metadir because it's not installed. Yet portupgrade insists on 'upgrading' it by installing it for me. I'm thinking maybe it's a dependency of some newly upgraded port but i don't know how to make portupgrade show me that information. --- Med vänliga hälsningar Stefan Midjich (nocturnal) ~ http://swehack.se
