As a prelude to installing the VLC package that turned out to be broken, pkg removed Firefox 47 (it didn't explain why).
Since there doesn't seem to be any way to revert the removal, I tried to install FF52 as a replacement. That failed with a complaint that the gstreamer-plugin is missing its "lame" dependency (lame is presumably a name rather than a judgement). Why doesn't pkg RENAME the bits that are meant to be removed, and actually remove them only after getting post-install permission? Then they could be reverted if the install fails, as the VLC install did. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
