Hello, Recently I decided to clean up the software installed on my FreeBSD machine (4.1). I updated my ports through cvs, and ran "pkg_version -c > update.sh" I noticed that I had a bunch of ports that had multiple installed versions (QT, vim, TK, etc.). After looking at the script I ran it. When it completed, I still had multiple versions of the software installed that I thought the script was supposed to delete. I think I found the problem: # # qt # multiple versions (index has 1.45,2.2.0_1) # cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/qt22 make && pkg_delete -f qt-1.45,2.2.0_1 make install Shouldn't "pkg_delete -f qt-1.45,2.2.0_1" be "pkg_delete -f qt-{1.45,2.2.0_1}"? I don't know if this is a bug or how the script is supposed to be. It's not too big of a deal, but if it supposed to delete multiple versions with the script unedited, then I could make a simple patch and submit it -- Sincerely, Caleb Land (bokonon@rochester.rr.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
