I use pkg to keep ports up to date and since this changes I get a report that libevent2-2.1.8 is orphaned from portversion. After a couple of days of this, I want ahead and did the package rename and origin commands in UPDATING and the orphan warning is gone. I'm not sure that there is an issue. It may have been totally cosmetic and disappeared of its own accord at some point, but I am at least curious. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683
