The port system is really simple and straight forward. If you change anything, then you have to be able to deal with it on your own. "Change anything" includes refusing ports, not rebuilding INDEX*, and etc. Some how you changed things by adding 1.6 and we all saw what happened. Now, we just have to remember it until the next person does it :). I am reasonably sure you will but many of the rest of us might not. > > But thank goodness for this mailing list. Otherwise I'd never find > out about some of these "gotchas". I learned something out of this too. Fontconfig was modified and so I tried -Rup fontconfig. Portupgrade just built fontconfig. Next I tried -pur fontconfig. It rebuild Xft, which had also been upgraded, and just repackaged everything that used them below that. Now, the kicker is that qt-3.x uses Xft.2 in the build but it was not rebuilt. I had to run -pufr fontconfig for that to happend.
