The ports tree, and therefore portmaster, perform installs and uninstalls by running pkg. Running `pkg query %v portmaster` should display what is says is currently the installed version number. If it is installed according to pkg, then `pkg delete portmaster` should be the correct action to remove it. `pkg info` outputs all installed packages with version on the package name and comment beside it if you want to manually review your full list. I'm not sure what would have brought it to a state of always removing pkg 3.33 when the ports tree and/or portmaster says it is uninstalling 3.35 before that. I'd guess just an output bug where they assume its the same version but that is misleading if that is happening and deserves a bug report; better to display no version number on a stage's output if the output is going to not match the command. > Do I need to update the ports tree?

Work directories of many ports get a versioned folder inside of it but the ports tree instructions don't check that what already exists is correct; in any case I'd let them all go if builds are giving you trouble (just as 'make clean' would have done in a port's folder). > https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/ports/ > > > I guess this would be needed: # git clone --depth 1 https:// > git.FreeBSD.org/ports.git /usr/ports ? I don't use '--depth 1' when I use git but seeing that discussed seems vaguely familiar. As I do want git history to be accurate and complete and I do make changes to the ports tree and with the intention of submitting patches I create it without that part. I migrated when use of git was still fairly new and I didn't reread that whole document but I recall I had /usr/ports as its own ZFS dataset and git gave me grief in trying to clone to that location, probably caused by the existence of /usr/ports/.zfs but I forget). I think there is another flag that suppresses such complaint but I think I cloned it to another location that was a normal directory and moved its contents including hidden content to /usr/ports. Git maintains its own data (only?) in /usr/ports/.git so that must be transferred too if moving the clone. > Regards, > > > Kaya
