Should I deinstall one or the other?
I'd imagine you installed an old port that was hardcoded to depend on ruby16, if you pkg_deinstall the 16 version it should warn you what was using it. > I deinstall both and reinstall one (I suppose 1.8.2.p2_2 is the most > recent)? Or should I just go ahead and upgrade both? I'd get rid of 16 unless you have a real need for it, 1.8 is a lot faster in my experience. -- Ugh, it's like there's a party in my mouth and everyone's throwing up. - Fry Rasputin :: Jack of All Trades - Master of Nuns _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
