See the thread starting with: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2004-June/013462.html =20 This change went in at the time without many noticable problems.

Upgrade your portupgrade to the latest, and all should be well: % pkg_info -I portupgrade\* portupgrade-20040701_3 FreeBSD ports/packages administration and manage= ment tools Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK --dkEUBIird37B8yKS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBDe1BiD657aJF7eIRAtRLAJ9UmG4ZfNZher4wLGg4bVhkrrk2ZACfXruB KNedqPtKQW89tcK7/0XSvoc= =ObGt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --dkEUBIird37B8yKS--
