You committed the patch in mid-December as far as I can tell. Sigh! I really, really need to complete that article which will be up to date. Bruce Mah just pointed out to me that I also neglected to say that the first strep should be: 1. portmaster -w devel/pcre Until the pcre port is updated, pkg_libchk won't find anything. The '-w' is to keep a copy of the old library so that things linked to it don't break immediately. pkg_libchk does not count old libraries in the compat folder, so it will still report the problem ports even though you use '-w'. -- R.
