FWIW, here is how I upgraded... 0. from a tty w/o X and GNOME running 1. cvsup the whole ports tree 2. pkg_version to see which ports went away (they have a ?) 3. pkg_deinstall -f of the ports that no longer existed in GNOME 2.4 4. pkgdb -F to delete the now missing dependencies 5. portupgrade -rf -m BATCH=yes ORBit2 6. portupgrade -R -m BATCH=yes gnome2 I also have WITHOUT_LDAP=yes in make.conf -- Matthew Donadio (m.p.donadio@ieee.org)help
