After years I have finally got round to upgrading my main computer. My intention is to upgrade the ports as well, but pkg doesn't want to play nice:
# pkg-static install -f pkg pkg-static: Warning: Major OS version upgrade detected. Running "pkg-static install -f pkg" recommended Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue... pkg-static: repository meta /var/db/pkg/FreeBSD.meta has wrong version 2 pkg-static: Repository FreeBSD load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Fetching meta.txz: 100% 916 B 0.9kB/s 00:01 pkg-static: repository meta /var/db/pkg/FreeBSD.meta has wrong version 2 repository FreeBSD has no meta file, using default settings Fetching packagesite.txz: 100% 6 MiB 582.8kB/s 00:11 pkg-static: repository meta /var/db/pkg/FreeBSD.meta has wrong version 2 pkg-static: Repository FreeBSD load error: meta cannot be loaded No error: 0 Unable to open created repository FreeBSD Unable to update repository FreeBSD Error updating repositories! I'm happy to blow everything away, but is there a way to extract something that pkg can use to determine which packages to install? Greg -- Sent from my desktop computer.
