The FreeBSD Porter's Handbook recommends using 9.2.3.r4 for 9.2.3rc4: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/makefile-naming.html and indeed: # pkg_version -t 9.2.3.r4 9.2.3 < People using portupgrade are missing the update to the release version. What is the problem with bumping the PORTEPOCH? Regards Oliver
