And looking at it from the perspective of someone who was a programmer twenty-plus years ago, I would have to say that it is somewhat amazing that this upgrade is as smooth as it was. It could have been a *lot* worse. One of the problems I think I had was that I jumped into the upgrade at the same time as everyone else, and that I failed to get all the packages on the first try. So I went through a couple iterations of portmanager -f -u -y to get everything, I think. I now have a functioning Xorg 7.2, but I still get an error whenever I or a= ny of my port upgrade tools hits xorg-libraries. I have included the UPDATE_X= ORG (or whatever) variable both in /etc/make.conf and in the environment whenev= er I run these tools. The result is always the same, an error during make fet= ch saying I need to see /usr/ports/UPGRADING that doesn't really tell me how to deal with an already borked upgrade. I'm not terribly worried about it; as I said, I have a functioning system, = and I must *somehow* have gotten xorg-libraries reinstalled because I actually deleted that package (using pkg_delete) along the way. I'm guessing it rea= cts even to the presence of the sym-link for /usr/X11R6. --=20 David Benfell, LCP benfell@parts-unknown.org --- Resume available at http://www.parts-unknown.org/ NOTE: I sign all messages with GnuPG (0DD1D1E3). --ADZbWkCsHQ7r3kzd Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFGXMayUd+dMw3R0eMRAjOPAKCjAOQwKeeVr356pLYYsIJ9Zw5ThwCggtXD pqHWFN6m840hqvdbqddoY3k= =xAet -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ADZbWkCsHQ7r3kzd--
