Often, a port fails to upgrade because of an existing link. Example: ====> Compressing man pages (compress-man) ===> Installing ldconfig configuration file ---> Backing up the old version ---> Uninstalling the old version [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 990 packages found - done] ---> Deinstalling 'qt5-dbus-5.12.1' ---> Preserving /usr/local/lib/qt5/libQt5DBus.so.5 as /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/libQt5DBus.so.5 cp: symlink: libQt5DBus.so.5.12.1: File exists Copy failed! [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 990 packages found - done] ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) ! qt5-dbus-5.12.1 (copy failed)
Shouldn't the ports system work better than this? (yes, I can manually remove the offending link and re-run the upgrade, but it is a nuisance) -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen _______________________________________________ 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"
