I am not a newcomer or an accountant. I work long long time with FreeBSD, probably since the very beginning. When wired things happens, before asking around, we check our environment and go sure we have nothing wrong "within our understandings" Beside that our portstree is sitting on separate ZFS mirror and even if I never believe that it is a file error, we always work on a clean ports tree, so the ports tree was not a problem Second misunderstanding is, my machine is working since days, I know how to solve such simple problems, I wanted to bring it to the attention of whom might be interested. I certainly do not go out wining and having my machine not funcional until the end of some discussion, it was fixed before I started talking here Still I am convinced that even if if portmaster -a solve the problem, the real problem is missing good documentation. For example, if portupgrade is not the right tool, then why it is nowhere clearly said? Put into UPDATING "Do not use portupgrade, use portmaster", but of course I am talking about some more compreensive documentation, this site http://freebsd.kde.org/ is kind of very poor and info about packages and stuff from other distros hardly apply for FreeBSD, so everything ends up in a seek-and-try game what is not very nice [sometimes] ... even if the educational value is very high :) well, I will not extend this too much here anyway, thanks for all intents to help, after running the portmaster -a I tell you if it solved my problem or not -- João Martins (JoaoBR) Infomatik Development Team http://wipserver.matik.com.br +55 11 4249.2222
