How to use MC ports-stable and upgrade?
-------------------------------------------------------
You can grab marcusmerge[1] and run 'marcusmerge -m ports-stable'. If
you want to update your ports tree, you have to run cvsup, csup,
portsnap or different method first then marcusmerge second at the
everytime. If you want to unmerge your ports tree, you can run
'marcusmerge -U' and be sure to update your ports tree to bring ports
back. Be sure to read in marcusmerge manpage[2] for more info.
To upgrade your installed ports, you can just simple 'portmaster -a' or
'portupgrade -a'. While we don't have most ports that depend on poppler
get bump yet, so be expect to get a bit problem in runtime at the
moment. But it is easy to fix by rebuild/reinstall port. To downgrade,
well you have to do it by manual.
As for the MC ports (GNOME development) users, I have moved these ports
from ports module to ports-stable module. You will need to run
'marcusmerge -U' first then update ports tree then MC ports-stable then
at last MC ports.
Tom Evans has pointed that I have forgotten to point one more details.
When you run marcusmerge and it will asking for CVS password. The CVS
password is 'anoncvs' (w/out quote). You can see more details at
http://www.marcuscom.com:8080/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ .. Thanks Tom!

With all of these changes, I want this to be tested in the pointyhat-exp
first before merges into FreeBSD ports tree. The more help we get will
get faster pointyhat-exp test and merge into FreeBSD ports tree. ;-)
Cheers,
