Dear list,
I'm experiencing problems when I try to portupgrade the xorg-driver
port. The old version of the port can't be uninstalled during the
portupgrade due to an undefined prefix.
The port can't be deleted by "pkg_delete -f xorg-drivers-7.3"
Does anybody know how to upgrade / remove this port?
Thanks in advance,
Simon
If nothing else works, you could try
rm -rf /var/db/pkg/xorg-drivers-7.3
If I remember correctly, there are detailed instructions in
/usr/ports/UPDATING -- go back to notes for sometime in May of 2007,
and there's a really long entry on upgraded to Xorg 7.x from 6.9. I
think the entry specifically mentions 7.2, but it should work for 7.3
as well.
The following worked for me: In /usr/ports/x11-drivers/xorg-drivers do
make config
then portupgrade -f xorg-drivers
