a. I did as sooon as I read your message
b. If I used this language, you will threaten me with banning from the
lists.
c. If it is, then either cvsup or CVS are broken. This is the exclusive
source for ANY source change.
d. I really do not care about these packages. I though I was doing a good
service trying them on a typical FreeBSD machine.

I already did. BTW, I got exactly ONE useful suggestion. The rest of you
guys tell me ``it works here''. Who cares! I have been doing software
releases for a while now, and this answer is the first to be thrown out.
Again, My procedure:
a. CVSup the entire release
b. rm -rf /usr/ports
c. cd /usr
d. cvs checkout ports
e. cd /usr/ports
f. make >& make.out
g. Daily: cd /usr/ports;cvs update -P -d >& update.out
h. Repeat step f.
I HAVE STOPPED SENDING THESE REPORTS.
Now, if you see a flaw in my procedure, please let me know.
If not, then the ports are broken. I accept that these reports may sound
like noise to you. This is why I have stopped sending them.
Thank you very much for all your help and patience in this matter.
