I have had a refuse file that excludes the language ports for years in 4-STABLE and 5-STABLE, without bothering to set IGNORE_CATEGORIES. I keep adding new languages as they show up. Portupgrade doesn't care. cd /usr/ports/; make index; will show some errors, but that is purely cosmetic. Look elsewhere for your problem. I would suggest you start by deleteing portupgrade and ruby ports and reinstalling them. -- Scott Lambert KC5MLE Unix SysAdmin lambert@lambertfam.org
