Hello,

I run FreeBSD 4.9 and just ran my weekly CVSup followed by portsdb
-uU and portupgrade -arR. I came across the following message which
looks similar to one previously posted today. I'm relatively new at
this and just question
whether or not the previous response is the same for my situation
(e.g., delete
portupgrade and ruby* and then rebuild portupgrade). BTW, what
happens to the
ruby files that are removed?



Ruby has been updated to version 1.8. Delete portupgrade and ruby*, which will delete all of the ruby-1.6 stuff. This will also delete 1.8. You can manually delete all of the ruby-1.6 or relax and let the portsytem rebuild it. At an rate, after you have deleted portupgrade and the ruby-1.6 ports, you can rebuild portupgrade, which will link to ruby-1.8.

Sorry for being so thick, but I get more than just nervous when using the delete
command. Do I understand you correctly in that I delete, as in rm, the portupgrade
files in /usr/ports/sysutils/ directory and also all of the ruby files in the /usr/ports/
lang/ directory?
