After running cvsup and portupgrade, I'm having some problems with xterm

Portupgrade failed because of the following:

===> xterm-206_1 conflicts with installed package(s): xorg-clients-6.8.2

     They install files into the same place.
     Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).
*** Error code 1

And then skipped a bunch of packages. Then i manually deinstalled xterm
(that was wrong perhaps?) and now when running portupgrade again it is
complaining about some stale dependency to xterm. For example:

Stale dependency: amarok-1.3.6 --> xterm-206 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to
fix, or specify -O to force.

Then running pkgdb -F asks me alot of questions regarding this stale
dependency and I am not sure what to do with it.

Then I read in UPDATING that one must upgrade xorg-clients before xterm,
but when i tried portupgrade xorg-clients I got:

Stale dependency: xorg-clients-6.8.2 --> xterm-206

Hmm, going in circles. Then i tried with the -F and xorg-clients started
to compile, but got an error code 1 with this:

cc -o xdriinfo -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=pentium4 -ansi -pedantic 
-Wno-system-headers -Dasm=__asm  -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wundef

*** Error code 1

What to do now?

Don't delete any of those dependencies! If you do then you will probably have to re-install those packages to get the dependencies back.

I believe upgrading xorg-clients and then xterm should work, if only that damn xorg-clients port would compile! I found this link late last night which might help, but haven't tried it myself yet.

If you don't want to do all that then you'll have to get the xterm port back to the state it was before cvsup. Either get it from a backup or try portdowngrade. Deleting xterm port *was* a bad idea, sorry. If you had left it alone then you'd be left with working xorg-client and xterm installed and could either chase the fix above at your leisure or wait for someone to fix it officially.

Hope that helps,
