I can't quite parse this because it appears to me that you've left out a word or two.

Sorry. I meant that I had placed a few ports in 'new' directories. By that I meant:
- I went to the FreeBSD Ports site
- found a port I wanted to upgrade (firefox or fluxbox for example)
- 'make deinstall'ed the one that was installed.
- Copied the directory on the site to a folder within the ports tree with a similar but different name.
- and then did a 'make install clean'
Then I was enlightened to the fact that this was... not the way to do things. So on to portupgrades I went. First one or two went without a hitch.
