[root@server /usr/ports/databases/postgresql82-server]# make fetch-recursive ===> Fetching all distfiles for postgresql-server-8.2.4_1 and dependencies ===> postgresql-server-8.2.4_1 cannot install: the port wants postgresql82-client but you have postgresql81-client installed. *** Error code 1 Why? Is there a legitimate reason why the fetch process refuses to download this? I know I've got an older version installed, but why is it preventing me from downloading a newer one? Seems like the IGNORE= check is either being checked too aggressively or that the logic is less sophisticated than it should be. Does anyone know of a reason why this couldn't be changed to allow fetching of conflicting ports distfiles? -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. http://people.collaborativefusion.com/~wmoran/ wmoran@collaborativefusion.com Phone: 412-422-3463x4023
