When using 'portupgrade' to upgrade software I get the following message: root@monitor4:~ # portupgrade -fp dri [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 635 packages found - done] ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) ! graphics/dri (dri-9.1.7_6,2) (could not find a temporary directory) The environment variables are set: PKG_TMPDIR=/tmp TMPDIR=/tmp I am unable to find the string "could not find a temporary directory" in the source tree of portupgrade. Does anyone know what could cause this message? Thanks. Kent
