I'm using FreeBSD for over 4 years now but I never bothered to think abount how to "upgrade" a port correctly? I think there once was an upgrade target for each port. Is it still existent or how else do I upgrade a port "correctly", besides making pkg_delete and installing the newer version just like there has never been an older version of the same port before? Thanks in advance, flo -- --- Florian Nigsch http://flo.nigsch.com/ PGP key: http://flo.nigsch.com/fnigsch.asc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
