The more important question is how do you determine for any given package which one is correct ? While you may determine 7.2 is the correct php , other port installs attempt to compile 'their' recommended version of php which is less than 7.2 same with gcc . if you install the current/production version , other ports want a lesser version . I attempted to research where to find versions but I couldn't find a reliable resource . -- Jim Pazarena fquest@paz.bz
