Hi,
When I use commands from the portupgrade port, I get this message:
Stale dependency: kde-3.2.3 --> autoconf-2.57_1 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.
I wanted to use the '-O' option, but that does not seem to exist. I've tried 'pkgdb -O' or 'pkgdb -FO'
Is this '-O' suggestion mistake in the portupgrade port?
How can I use the force option?
Rob.
Hmm, pretty sure that should be a little "o". At least that's what the help screen and the manpage seem to indicate...
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [/usr/ports] [23:16] % pkgdb --help
pkgdb rev.1.69
usage: pkgdb [-hafFQQquv] [-c pkgname] [-o pkgname] [-s /old_pkgname/new_pkgname/] [file ...]
-h, --help Show this message
<snip>
-o, --origin=PKGNAME[=ORIGIN] Look up or change the origin of the given
package<snip>
The help seems to indicate you would type something like:
$pkgdb -o <correctdependancy>
I usually just do it with -F
HTH,
