However, I am getting the following error message: Stale dependency: ImageMagick-6.2.5.5_3 --> lcms-1.14_1,1 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force. As suggested, I run 'pkgdb -F' and after a couple minutes, it seems to have fixed a number of problems. Rerunning portupgrade results in the same error as above. I tried rebuilding the port as follows: cd /usr/ports make fetchindex portsdb -u And then retrying the above, but this doesn;t help either. Help! How can I break out of this viscous circle and become a sane FreeBSD-er again?! -- Kiffin Gish
