After doing a cvsup on one of my machines I like to run 'portversion -c > needs.update' to see what needs updating. If the output is small enough I might try doing 'portupgrade -a', but usually I go through the list one by one to set the flags I think portupgrade will need for that case. This time I was a little surprised to find two entries for ruby: # # ruby # needs updating (port has 1.6.8.2004.07.28_1) # pkgs="$pkgs ruby-1.6.8.2004.07.28" # # ruby # needs updating (port has 1.8.2.p2_2) # pkgs="$pkgs ruby-1.8.2.p2_1" I don't know how I got two versions installed, but more importantly I wonder if this is a problem? Should I deinstall one or the other? Or should I deinstall both and reinstall one (I suppose 1.8.2.p2_2 is the most recent)? Or should I just go ahead and upgrade both? Any recommendations would be gratefully received. -- Roger
