Hi
I just updated my ports and installed Firefox. I have installed
Firefox version 0.9.3. How can I update it to version 1.0?
Thanks
PS: I am running FreeBSD 5.3
Your post is a bit ambiguous. did you have 0.9.3 on your system and
wanted to upgrade to 1.0 or did you update your ports but it installed
0.9.3?
What I would do:
my ports-sup file:
#*default host=cvsup14.us.FreeBSD.org
*default host=cvsup12.us.FreeBSD.org
#*default host=cvsup1.FreeBSD.org
#*default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
ports-all
-----------------------------
> su
# cvsup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile
(normally i'd just run pkg_version -v |grep "<" and if needed
portupgrade after cvsuping, if I was upgrading something like Gnome or
KDE i'd exit X)
# cd /usr/ports/www/firefox
# make deinstall
# more M*
# make WITH_OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS=yes install clean
# exit

Could his problem be that he has simply not fetched the index?
I normally do:
# cvsup -g -L2 /usr/ports-supfile
..
..
# cd /usr/ports
# make fetchindex
# portsdb -u
and then I would try reinstalling it using the method above.
