I'm running 4.1 release. before I did anything else I added the package to upgrade from 4.1 to stable, as per the handbook. Then I updated the ports tree via a cvsup--using the generic cvsupfile that came with cvsupit. So then I tried to install a port, and I got the following: "error -- your port uses an old layout." Then I was directed to a faq to ask for the correct file to cvsup. I did this. I think. But I must have not done this correctly, because after running a cvsup again, I still get the same error message when I try to make something. Help! What am I doing wrong? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. thanks! --alissa __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
