I am using CVSup 16.1 on a FreeBsd 4.2 box
with the following supfile

---------------8<----------------

*default host=cvsup.au.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=. 
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress

## Ports Collection.
#
# The easiest way to get the ports tree is to use the "ports-all"
# mega-collection.  It includes all of the individual "ports-*"
# collections,

ports-all

---------------8<----------------

My ports tree dates back to 2.2.5 days and I am getting the out of
date message (the one that refers you to Johns page FAQ Q12 and Q13)

I have tried to do add the line 

list=cvs:. 

to the file after the 
tag=. section as this seems to be the appropriate entry for the
ports collection.. but to no avail.

Currently the only way I seem to have of curing the problem is
to delete the offending port directory and the CSVup the ports-all
again to replace it! (BTW some ports are still broken even then,
so I guess some maintainers havent kept up with John ;-)

Is there a _better_ way to correctly bring all my ports collection
up to date, or did i goof with the fixit line above?

cheers
