[-- Attachment #1 --] Howdy, I just noticed the pkg_version command the other day, and thought I would try it out. I semi-regularly update my ports tree (via cvsup), so I was not really surprised to see that serveral things have newer versions. So I have a few questions: 1) Is there a prescribed way to update librarys/applications that have newer versions in the ports tree? For instance I discovered that ImageMagik wouldn't install with libtool-1.3.4, but it would with libtool-1.3.4_2. I tried to deinstall libtool-1.3.4 but was told that there are many applications currently using it. So I did a make install for 1.3.4_2. It install correctly, ImageMagik installed, and everything looks kosher. Except that now I have: libtool-1.3.4 Generic shared library support script libtool-1.3.4_2 Generic shared library support script In my pkg_info list. 2) Do I really have 2 versions of the library? (Looking in the directory /usr/local/bin, I find only one version. 3) How can I "purge" the other entry from my pkg_info list? Thanks!
