The problem with that advice is that it's extremely likely to result in some ports getting linked against some libraries from 5 and some from 6, which will probably result in them breaking. It's a much better idea to do everything at once in dependency order, before doing any other kind of port upgrades (or adding new ports, for that matter). _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
