Ok,

I have a few of 6.2 servers (including two running in jails) that do not have full X installed, but they do have a number packages that depended on the various X libraries, fonts, and clients; and so these components of X are installed.

I have read through UPDATING and the mailing list, and it appears that the process as described that allows the use of portupgrade requires a full install of X.

My question is, can I still use portupgrade, with the manual upgrade of the libXft port, or should I manually deinstall and reinstall all the Xorg related ports, and the ports that depend on them. If I go the manual reinstall route are their any make.conf values that need to be set to indicate I want the new file structure used, or have all the ports that used the "/usr/X11R6" directory been updated?

I would also appreciate hearing about any other gotcha's that anyone in a similar situation has run into.

Below is a list of installed packages on one of the servers I am working with.

Thanks,
Jeff
