Running: /usr/sbin/pkg_version -vIL= produces this output: gnupg-1.4.6_2 < needs updating (index has 2.0.1) Running: pkgdb -Fv produces this output: Checking for origin duplicates Duplicated origin: security/gnupg - gnupg-1.4.6_2 gnupg-2.0.1 Unregister any of them? [no] This is from the /usr/ports/UPDATING file: 20061221: AFFECTS: users of security/gnupg AUTHOR: kuriyama@FreeBSD.org The security/gnupg port was upgraded to 2.0.1 (with security fix) and good-old gnupg-1.4.6 was repocopied to security/gnupg1. Both of security/gnupg (2.x) and security/gnupg1 (1.4.x) are designed not to conflict with each other. So you can use security/gnupg1 for gpg(1), and use security/gnupg for gpg2(1) commands. All directly dependents are $PORTREVISION bumped, so portupgrade -R gnupg will works fine. After portupgrade, you will have both of gnupg-2.0.1 and gnupg-1.4.6. Obviously, I now have both versions installed on my PC. My question is should I simply answer (YES) and unregister the older version of this program, or simply leave both versions installed. If I unregister the older version, will it cause any problems? Thanks! -- Gerard
