I meant that I had placed a few ports in 'new' directories. By that I meant: - I went to the FreeBSD Ports site - found a port I wanted to upgrade (firefox or fluxbox for example) - 'make deinstall'ed the one that was installed. - Copied the directory on the site to a folder within the ports tree with a similar but different name. - and then did a 'make install clean' Then I was enlightened to the fact that this was... not the way to do things. So on to portupgrades I went. First one or two went without a hitch. -- Regards, Eric
