In practice, however, pretty much all software nowadays depends on shared libraries, so it's reasonable to do a "pkg_delete -a" after upgrading to a new major version of FreeBSD, and then reinstall all of the ports you use once you've finished upgrading. Run "pkg_info" before the upgrade and keep track of this output to help you remember what ports you've got installed... -- -Chuck
