I am trying to install portupgrade from the ports collection on my FBSD 5.4. But it keeps giving me error about db43 allready installed:
<snip>
===>   db43-4.3.29 is already installed
     You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
     by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
     If you really wish to overwrite the old port of databases/db43
     without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
     in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1
<snip>
Yes, I have db43 allready installed but isn't it suppose to pass it if it finds package allready installed?


Have you tried doing what the message suggests?

   # cd /usr/ports/databases/db43
   # make deinstall
   # make reinstall

Then go and install portupgrade...
