Quoting Warner Losh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (from Thu, 31 May 2007 23:21:15 -0600 (MDT)):

my portupgrade -a died in the middle.  Well, the laptop in my battery died

A laptop in the battery... wow, is the decharging now computer optimized? ;-)

at a bad time.  all of my +CONTENTS files are gone.  Is there any hope?

Hard solution:
 - get your ports in /usr/ports down to the corrsponding installed version
 - "make install -DFORCE_PKG_REGISTER" each

Easy solution:
 - let your ports as is
 - force an install
 - pray that not much files have changed
- "pkgdb -F" and let it remove the old ports for those where more than one exists

Collaborative solution:
 - post the pkgname of each
 - let people here send the +CONTENTS files to you

Bye,
Alexander.
