I am posting this to both viaverio and the freeBSD lists because the one suggests I get help from the other.

What about sudo portupgrade -faP ? Do you see a downside there? I'm thinking that since viaverio has apparently not maintained the port systems on its FreeBSD v6.3 servers that they may be in a state inconsistent with the port systems on which other ports were created. My first attempt to install ffmpog was sudo portinstall ffmpeg which downloaded a lot of code and compiled it. Maybe some was incompatible with code already on my server? Maybe running an upgrade of the entire ports system on my server will fix my problem? It'll take a while, I'm sure, but I'm wasting time right now trying to get ffmpeg installed. Of course, I don't want to break any(every)thing else on the system! So my question is... what do you think of sudo portupgrade -faP ? Can it hurt? Do you think it might help? If I cannot do that I guess I will go to the FreeBSD archives and try to find a binary of the ffmpeg program...
