Hi Folks,
Running pkgdb -F Im getting the following error:
I tried reinstalling devel/py-gobject, but did not help.
All dependencies are linked to py25-gobject-2.16.1, so I can not

Can somebody give me a workaround??

Hi all
With pkg_version I can easily see which installed ports has newer
versions available, but what I miss is a way to see what has changed.
The reason for this is that commit messages often say that only the
pkg-plist has changed or something that does not make me want to update.

First, sorry I missed the original problem report, I'm not subscribed
to -questions. Usually ports questions (including those about tools)
are handled on freebsd-po...@freebsd.org, but OTOH if you're not sure
where to send a question it's always better to start on the -questions
