SH> hi
SH> when i try to build ports on my system i get

SH> test# cd /usr/ports/
SH> test# cd security/sudo/
SH> test# make patch
SH> ===>  sudo-1.6.3.7 : Your system is too old to use this
SH> bsd.port.mk. You need a fresh make world or an upgrade kit. Please go
SH> to http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ or a mirror site and follow the
SH> instructions.
SH> test# uname -a
SH> FreeBSD test.mailsurf.com 4.3-RC FreeBSD 4.3-RC #2: Wed Apr 18
SH> 10:08:47 GMT 2001
SH> root@test.mailsurf.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MAILSURF  i386
SH> test#

SH> what am i missing?
SH> make world has finished 10min before with a repository i got yesterday.
SH> ports is also fresh.

SH> fyi: i am running a diskless machine, so /var is created on boot via mfs

File /var/db/port.mkversion usually holds date when pkg_*** utilites
were rebuild. It is checked by port's Makefile. If it is missing or
has very old date you will see message

    Your system is too old to use this

It should contain string like 20010201 (it is from one of my boxes).
