I'm trying to install x11/fbdesk and portupgrade does not do anything. pi# portinstall --verbose x11/fbdesk ---> Session started at: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 11:04:37 -0300 ** None has been installed or upgraded. ---> Session ended at: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 11:04:41 -0300 (consumed 00:00:03) I can confirm that this port hasn't been installed: pi# pkg_version -v -s fbdesk pkg_info: can't find package '*fbdesk*' installed or in a file! pi# ls /var/db/pkg/f fam-2.6.4/ fluxbox-devel-0.9.10/ fasta3-33.t08.d4/ fluxconf-0.9.4_2/ fastest_cvsup-0.2.8/ fontconfig-2.2.90_3/ fetchmail-6.2.5_2/ fping-2.4b2/ fftw-2.1.5_1/ freetype-1.3.1_2/ firefox-1.0.1.p_4/ freetype2-2.1.7_3/ flashplugin-mozilla-0.4.10_2/ frontline-0.5.4/ fltk-1.1.4/ What intrigues me is the lack of any useful message about it (error, warn, whatever). OTOH, doing a 'make clean && make install' in place is now progressing as expected. Why is it that portupgrade is not doing its job? I have run 'pkgdb -F' and the only errors I see are related to a couple of ports I have installed that are not in the FreeBSD ports tree and some dependencies of openoffice on xorg stuff (I have XFree86).
