Hello list, I have problems understanding a base concept :-(
Is that right, when I install 5.2.1-RELEASE and I install the ports-distribution with cvsup and keep them up to date, that the ports I build afterwards with "make install" are newer than the release-precompiled-packages distributed with 5.2.1-RELEASE? Is that right that this procedure (with cvsup) is NOT ONLY correcting paths for the distfiles of ports in the ports-tree, then also replaces old versions of ports by newer ones? If so, does it mean that I could use 5.2.1-RELEASE and an updated portstree resulting in getting in example gnome 2.8 and kde 3.4 and so on? Have I to see the RELEASE-version abstracted separated from the portstree? And how is compatibility granted between different RELEASE-versions and the up-to-date-ports-tree?
