Wat is the best way to get the cleanest FreeBSD-6.x system without installing from scratch? Recompile each port? Or use the COMPAT_FREEBSD5 layer?
this is a different question than you asked before... the COMPAT_FREEBSD5 will allow your existing binaries to continue to run. you can leave this on while you run "portupgrade -f -a" to recompile all your ports, then you can take it out... and remove all the compat libraries sitting around if you care to do so.
personally, I don't see the point of doing that. just let your ports naturally get replaced as they are upgraded due to version bumps and such.
