Hi,
Not sure which list I should email this to...so I apologise for the noise if this is the wrong one.
There is a recent upgrade in the ports for the excellent Xfce4 port to 4.2. There is also a note in the UPDATING file as how to do this.
"20050126: AFFECTS: users of x11-wm/xfce4 AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If you use Xorg 6.8.1: Make shure there is an /tmp/.ICE-unix with propper rights. For further informations about that, please refer to 20041229 Please update all your plugins as well when you update from 4.0.6 to 4.2. They all need recompiling to link against the new xfce libraries"
Maybe I am just too used to the excellent amount of detail in the UPDATING file usually but this doesn't even offer advice on how to update your plugins. Every UPDATING file entry I have found useful in the past has always had a command you could use to carry out this update plus whether you should update your port first then update the dependencies.
For example: "20041231: AFFECTS: users of the linux compatibility environment AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The default linux_base was changed from v7 to v8. You need to update from
v7 to v8 and rebuild every linux port. To update run:
portupgrade -rf -o emulators/linux_base-8 emulators/linux_base In case you already use linux_base-8 you have to run:
portupgrade -rf emulators/linux_base-8
"It would be nice if this could be ammended to show the full details of what is required to update. I take it you upgrade the Xfce4 port and then run an upgrade on the plugins, or will just running portupgrade on everything do the trick?
