I am using
portsnap fetch
portsnap update
to sync my ports tree on FreeBSd 6.1...it seems it maintains an index
when I run update.
I am used to using:
portsversion and portsupdate to upgrade ports...in this method I have
also used
portsdb -Uu
to rebuild an index anytime prior to running these commands...yes
portsdb takes a while and I've always wondered if this is necessary
prior to running any of these commands..
So my question is: Is the index being maintained by portsnap the
same or a replacement to that used by portupgrade? Do I have to
maintain both sets of indexes in order to use portsupdate??
What do other people do?
thanks, ke han
