Is the package index referred to when using pkg_version an amalgam of installed packages, installed ports, and not-installed ports? I ask this because of the "multiple versions" that shows up when I run pkg_version after upgrading from 3.4-R to 3.4-S. A bunch now show up, and I'm assuming it's because multiple versions of a port exist, rather than my installation of multiple versions of a package or port. For instance, bash has multiple versions, but I only installed 2.03. However, an earlier version shows up in the ports tree, so is this why pkg_version shows multiple version existing? -- David Kanter djkanter@nwu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
