Hi All, Having run "portmanager -u" several times now, I am very pleased to say that my times have decreased from an initial 38 hours to about 2 hours, per run. Along the way, I have cleaned up "conflicts" and did "pkg_delete" on several applications that were "included in base" or that really were not needed. Now I'm faced with situations where I don't have a clue. Below is partial output from "portmanager -s". I have manipulated each line to avoid line wrapping problems, I hope. 00129 have:cdrtools-2.01_4 /sysutils/cdrtools OLD available: cdrtools-2.01_5 00131 have:libcdio-0.76_1 /sysutils/libcdio OLD available: libcdio-0.77 00141 have:dvd+rw-tools-6.1 /sysutils/dvd+rw-tools built with OLD dependency: cdrtools-2.01_5 00186 have:nautilus-cd-burner-2.14.1 /sysutils/nautilus-cd-burner built with OLD dependency: cdrtools-2.01_5 00250 have:sound-juicer-2.14.3 /audio/sound-juicer OLD available: sound-juicer-2.14.3_1 00255 have:gnome2-2.14.1 /x11/gnome2 built with OLD dependency: sound-juicer-2.14.3_1 In the case of cdrtools or libcdio or sound-juicer, I think this is telling me that I have an older version installed and a newer version is available. What should I do in this situation? In the case of dvd+rw-tools or nautilus-cd-burner or gnome2, apparently I have a solid-gold chance to mess up dependencies. What should I do here? Please note that I am new to FreeBSD and have a very limited exposure to using "make" to build packages. Any links to dealing with portmanager output would be appreciated.
