OK, I've survived the installation and kernel recompile thing, and
now have FreeBSD 3.3-Release running on my main server here :-).
I've also discovered cvsup to update the ports collection (might make
a cron job out of that actually). However... if I have installed say
Samba 2.0.5a (which I have) and would like to upgrade that to 2.0.6,
what would be the best procedure? Just to hack the Makefile to make
it point to 2.0.6 and make the new version, or should I do make
deinstall first?
I'd also like to install KDE 1.1.2 somehow, but the port is only
1.1.1. KDE is split into heaps of different files, so I'm wondering
where to start here. (Apologies if this is apparent by reading the
Makefile or something.)
Wish I had made /usr bigger or put /usr/ports onto a separate
partition... 87% full already.
Regards,
