Only answers I've received were to use packages via pkgng. (Not an option). For the other 9 servers, I tried it a little differently. =A0 =A0 -=A0 switch to pkgng =A0 =A0 -=A0 svn base and ports =A0 =A0 -=A0 upgrade base =A0 =A0 -=A0 upgrade ports with portupgrade. Worked fine for 8 of 9. Will be rolling the 5 broke servers back (yes, we have bkups) ;) Will leave the 8 working ones running pkgbg, and see how it goes. Still wondering, how to repair the database w/o pkgfb -F so portupgrade will work? And as I understand,=A0 poudriere must be used instead of portupgrade to create packages?
