No, you need a package repository for pkgng, not the ports tree. You can try=20 # setenv PACKAGESITE "http://pkgbeta.freebsd.org/`uname|tr '[:upper:]' '[:l= ower:]'`-`uname -r|cut -d. -f1`-` uname -m`/latest" # pkg update # pkg upgrade But please take note because pkg can also downgrade a package if the remote repository has an older version that the one that you have installed. --ccWoVK0blSAgmhl2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk/W7WMACgkQKc512sD3afiVRwCeMjVzablvOnJtEOkjd05dIx4r 6qEAoKtvUFy2GrvxKrrT5+bCzn0FfbWX =NnTM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ccWoVK0blSAgmhl2--
