Until now there is none. I know how to use the ports system, but my fast system lies dead until my new motherboard arrives. Compiling on this old Pentium 90 exceeds its normal uptimes :-) BTW, the portupgrade tool needs the fresh ports collection. But for its -PP option the relevant packages should be available, which they are not! Even when compiling, the problem is there. Imagine I would have built portugrade at the time, when the nowadays package was built. All my ports dependencies are fine. Today I only cvsup my ports tree and will get the above mentioned error then. There must be a way to fix this without recompiling portupgrade and ruby. At least it's my decision, when to update software, not the ports system's one! > Well...

O.k. maybe I'll give it a try over weekend, when I'm not at home. Ciao Siegbert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
