There is no tag called RELENG_5_3 in the ports try so it will cause everything to be deleted. RELENG_5_3 only applies to the /usr/src tree. Just use . for a tag for ports which gets the latest ones. RELENG_5_3_RELEASE might work to retrieve the exact set of ports that shipped with the cds, but I'd recommend to just get the latest with all the security patches. > ... > ... > ... > Delete ports/x11-wm/yawm/Makefile > Delete ports/x11-wm/yawm/distinfo Delete > ports/x11-wm/yawm/pkg-descr > Shutting down connection to server > Finished successfully > > > My ports-supfile looks as > > *default host=cvsup10.us.freebsd.org > *default base=/var/db > *default prefix=/usr > *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_3 > *default delete use-rel-suffix > ports-all > > > What is the problem? > > Sarav > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Meet the all-new My Yahoo! - Try it today! > http://my.yahoo.com > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" -- I sense much NT in you.
