Using portupgrade etc. No. DO NOT EXTRACT OVER EXISTING /usr/ports as this will cause patch problems. Instead, set the PORTSDIR environment variable to the fully-qualified path to this new location. For example: # cd /space/xorg/ports # tar -xjf ports-xorg-7.2.tbz # setenv PORTSDIR `realpath .` The realpath is important so as to resolve symlinks.
