I needed to update php5(x)-gd (which needs png15).
problem is, the server has php5 (php5.3) installed, so in order to
upgrade php5 (5.3) to php53 (5.3), I looked in /usr/ports/UPDATING
(I didn't find my answer there, not sure why, I will look again, and add
some notes.)
I think the OFFICIAL version of what is supposed to happen is:
portmaster --list-origins > /tmp/pkgs
portmaster -r lang/php53 lang/php5
(ok, I am not really sure)
I did this:
cd /var/db/pkgs
renamed everything php5- to php53-
then
sed -i '' -e 's/php5/php53/g' /var/db/pkgs/*
then on to tinderbox to build php5-gd
woops, it sets dependency for php5 (5.4)
so, in tinderbox need to set DEFAULT_PHP_VER=53
then pecl-pdflib (which needs png15) need updating, and it sets php5
(5.4) as its dependency!
and joomla25, all need to be recompiled with DEFAULT_PHP_VER.
anyway we can just leave php5x like perl versions (many of them, on
default), like mysql-client*, python, etc?
just putting on very small update in has taken 4 hours.
(ps, web site never went down this way, it was running all through the
update process, sometimes important in todays world)
back to official updating in /usr/ports/UPDATING: where did I miss the
updating instructions if you want to KEEP php53?
