Hi,
I think you're considering something like ``upgrade'' :-)
Actually, I usually do that manually, especially the gnome*.
To do this by hand is easy. Install the new one, move the +REQUIRED_BY
into it. Check cvsweb if there's any difference in PLIST. Then simply
rm -rf the old one. Finally, do a script like this is mostly OK:
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/db/pkg
for i in */+CONTENTS; do
{
sed -e 's,gtk-1.2.7,gtk-1.2.8,' $i > $i.t
mv $i.t $i
}
done
I don't know if these steps above is sufficient, or I'll try to
write a script to automate that.
