But that means that you browse the port files each time you want a new report about them(while the portversion command use the .db file). Isn't it slower? Maybe I didn't got it right. Also, do you prefer building locally or just using prepackaged stuff? I found out that the two doesn't mix so well. I've installed some part of kde by portupgrade and some by pkg_add, then I got errors while building the metaport "kde". I solved it by pkg_delete the previous pkg_added ports and make install them. Is it so in general or it is just a temporary issue that will be solved later (I was talking about current)? Thank you for your inputs and your time, /Dorin. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com
