Thats weird. When I updated using cvsup it updated all of the ports in my /usr/ports directory. I then ran "make install" on /usr/ports/x11/xorg, it then looks for dri-7.0.1,2.tbz, but that file isn't in amd64/packages-6.2-release/latest or amd64/packages-6.2-release/graphics/. It is only in the packages-7-release/graphics directory. Why would xorg require a app that isn't in my current build? How do I get around it if I cant use the packages-7-release files?
