I am having problems with portupgrade not being able to install newer versions of my installed ports because the old version will not deinstall. Here is the output from a forced deinstall of bonobo. agnes# pkg_deinstall -f bonobo-1.0.22 [Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 443 packages found (-1 +0) (...) done]---> Deinstalling 'bonobo-1.0.22' pkg_delete: package 'bonobo-1.0.22' is required by these other packages and may not be deinstalled (but I'll delete it anyway): bonobo-conf-0.16_1 gal-0.24_1 gnomedb-0.2.96_2 gnucash-1.8.8_1 gtkhtml-1.1.10_3 guppi-0.40.3_4 libgda-0.2.96_2 libglade-0.17_3 py-gtk-0.6.10_1 pkg_delete: package 'bonobo-1.0.22' doesn't have a prefix ** The following packages were not deinstalled (*:skipped / !:failed) ! bonobo-1.0.22 (pkg_delete failed) I have two or three that do this to me, and with bonobo, it is causing problems with dependency issues. Can someone please tell me what is going on here, and what I can do about it? Thank you. -- Lute ************************* * Power Provided * * by * * FreeBSD 5.2.1 RELEASE * *************************
