I have found portmanager to be more intelligent. When you run it it takes a look at all installed ports and then it decides what order to upgrade the ports and their dependencies. Portupgrade proceeds linearly and you may need to run it a few more times for everything to be upgraded. At least that's how I understand it. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
