andrews@TECHNOLOGIST.COM said: :- No. If I installed 34upgrade.tgz and I had a newer version of :- bsd.port.mk on my system, then it would be overwritten. I'm not trying to be argumentative, but what you are saying is flatly contradicted on http://www.freebsd.org/ports/, where it says: "Please install one of the following depending on the release you are running. [...] That should enable you to use all the ports listed here." There is no mention on that page of using cvsup (or ftp) to update bsd.port.mk as a requirement for building ports. -- Robert Withrow -- (+1 978 288 8256) BWithrow@BayNetworks.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
