I will try that and get back to you in a couple of days when it finishes compiling. :-( I've had very few problems using portupgrade since it was introduced. If it truly doesn't work here, it probably means a dependency or plist problem with one or more of the ports. It would be nice to be able to fix that and have a better upgrade path that doesn't put one's machine out of commission for so long. -- Christopher Masto CB461C61 8AFC E3A8 7CE5 9023 B35D C26A D849 1F6E CB46 1C61 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
