Silly me. I updated my ports snapshot, and as per UPDATING, ran portmaster -o lang/perl5.16 lang/perl5.12 This went OK, so I then ran perl-after-upgrade, with and without -f. It scans the packages and finds everything it should, but insists nothing needs to be done, saying " 0 moved, 0 modified, 0 adjusted" for every one of them. At the end it says "Fixed 0 packages (0 files moved, 0 files modified)". Well of course this isn't right; all my modules are still sitting in the 5.12.4 directory and are not getting moved over to the 5.16.2 one. This naturally breaks everything depending on those modules. What's going wrong? Sorry if this is a novice question. Please let me know what I need to check. Thanks, Mike Don't know the answer to your exact question. Have you done "portmaster 5-"? If not, do it. After this is done, how much have you got left under 5.12.4? Anton
