Yes, the default is version 4.

I hope that last buildworld was an installworld. There is more to it than that. I think for 4.2 that they are recomending that you remove the older version before you begin adding version 4.2. Changing versions also means you have ports that were built with the wrong version. When I upgraded to 4.2.0, I pkg_delete -r everything that used XFree86. Then, I added everything back in and made packages for my other machines. On an AMD-1600+ XP that is optimized to do buildworlds, it required a good share of a day before KDE-3.0.1 was finally reinstalled. Configuring XFreee86 required running xf86cfg before it would start. The location of the config file has changed. It expects to find /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config and the one in /etc is an old style one. I started out using portupgrade and ended up with multiple versions on some ports. When you have multiple ports requiring upgrades "-rfpu", portupgrade has not handled the new dependancies on a forked side line well. I did the final build manually.

I hope that last buildworld was an installworld. There is more to it than that. I think for 4.2 they are recomending that you remove the older version before you begin adding version 4.2. Changing versions also means you have ports that were built with a really different version. I work really hard to keep them all consistant. When I upgraded to 4.2.0, I pkg_delete -r everything that used XFree86. Then, I added everything back in and made packages for my other machines. On an AMD-1600+ XP that is optimized to do buildworlds, it required a large part of a day before KDE-3.0.1 was finally installed. Configuring XFreee86 required running xf86cfg before it would start. The location of the config file has changed. It expects to find /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config and the one in /etc is an old style one. I started out using portupgrade and ended up with multiple versions on some ports. When you have multiple ports requiring upgrades via "-rfpu", portupgrade has not cleanly handled the new dependancies on a forked side line well. I did the final build manually.
