My own horror story: ruby started throwing errors: INFO: Running /usr/local/sbin/pkg_deinstall -fO graphics/kimdaba [Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 690 packages found (-1 +0) (...)/usr/local/lib/rub y/site_ruby/1.8/pkgdb.rb:466: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-freebsd6]
halfway through the package removal process, but the gnome_upgrade212.sh script kept cheerfully chewing its way through my package list. I ended up looking in the list of packages that it was going to "fix", manually pkg_deleteing them, and then manually reinstalling them. Out of curiosity, exactly what's wrong with portupgrade that these upgrade scripts (which never seem to work as expected on my system) claim to fix? -- Kirk Strauser
