If so, this message from the freebsd-ports archive might help you correct them: http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-ports@freebsd.org/msg22366.html If you're referring to mnemonic output ("=", "<", etc.), that's normal pkg_version output: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg_version&sourceid=opensearch Personally, I usually run "pkg_version -vL=" to show me only the packages that need to be upgraded. All of the up-to-date packages are suppressed, and the output looks like this: ca_root_nss-3.11.7 < needs updating (port has 3.12.4) clamav-0.95.3 < needs updating (port has 0.96.1) compositeproto-0.3.1 < needs updating (port has 0.4.1) coreutils-6.9_2 < needs updating (port has 7.5_1) courier-authlib-base-0.61.0 < needs updating (port has 0.63.0) Hope that helps, Greg - -- Greg Larkin http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - The Power To Serve http://www.sourcehosting.net/ - Ready.
