I accidentally deleted the message I'm replying to; so I can't include the context here... ] Yes, 'cd /usr/ports ; make index' will re-build the INDEX file. BUT you might want to consider installing and using the portupgrade tools. After a CVSup, I run 'portsdb --update-index --update' to rebuild the index and portsdb files; and then 'portversion --verbose --inv-limit =3D' to get a list of installed ports whose versions don't match the current version in the ports tree. And when I update a port it is usually with 'portupgrade --recursive --upward-recursive' so that it will also upgrade any ports that the target depends on and any that depend on the target. [ Note that rebuilding the INDEX file is not fast... ] -Pat --==========232510975========== Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE+TqB2ncYNbLD8wuMRArebAJ94rlmIPZefPHOyH+a94Wc/aWUtZgCfd/4f 9gbQ/DVXYo2nG/nD1HCYH4E= =MfJm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==========232510975==========-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mozilla" in the body of the message
