Thanks for answer!
I'm aware of compatibility. However, I'd like to have it all
fresh, especially for luakit. I cannot find the server, to
put the name in conf file for pkg. Txz packages are probably
not ready yet.
Further, reading manual, I assume portmaster to be happy to
upgrade binary. I used it to install ports, recompiling it,
due the lack of bin files for 9.1. -P should recompile only
if it cannot find binary file. -PP would avoid any compiling
whatever happens. To my understanding.
Best regards
Zoran
