For instance, copying a new version over an old one and leaving both sets of patches, or having extracted an old source that you're trying to patch, or similar things. Remove the entire port and work directory - which is usually in the port directory - and reinstall the port, then try again. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
