Did you csup your portstree first?
He used portsnap, which does the same thing.
By the way: "portsnap fetch extract update" is pointless: "extract"
gives you a clean copy of the last fetched version, and "update"
extracts only what has changed since the last extract or update. Use
"portsnap fetch extract" once, then "portsnap fetch update" from then
on. (Or replace "fetch" with "cron" if you're doing this automatically
- it adds a random delay to not overload the servers at popular times
of the day.)
Thanks for the tip!
It's my first time updating/upgrading a FreeBSD system so any
'experienced' advice is always valid and welcome :-)
