It went _very_ smoothly, with the help of UPDATING and some experience with this sort of thing. No make errors at any point. The only issues I hit were my fault, like forgetting to run mergemaster and then having pam lock me out, and forgetting to install perl and having half of my port rebuilds fail. D'oh. Every port I have built cleanly with the exception of games/xkobo (very minor, and I can file a PR if desired). (Also, the WITHOUT_COMPOSER hack to mozilla-devel seems to be broken, but that's a separate issue.) I am working on a write-up of my upgrade path, a sort of "Informal Guide to doing 4.X->current", which I will post to -doc when the network on the (non-FreeBSD) machine starts working again. So, to sum it up, my upgrading experience was excellent. Great work. - @ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
