I went to upgrade my ports this morning and saw this: p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015 < needs updating (port has 2.030) (=> 'archivers/p5-IO-Compress') p5-IO-Compress-Base-2.015 < needs updating (port has 2.030) (=> 'archivers/p5-IO-Compress') p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.015 < needs updating (port has 2.030) (=> 'archivers/p5-IO-Compress') p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1 < needs updating (port has 2.030) (=> 'archivers/p5-IO-Compress')
After reading CHANGES and UPDATING I did a portupgrade p5-* since there were no specific instructions and I get this: ===> Checking if archivers/p5-IO-Compress already installed ===> An older version of archivers/p5-IO-Compress is already installed (p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015) 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 archivers/p5-IO-Compress without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER" in your environment or the "make install" command line. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/archivers/p5-IO-Compress. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/archivers/p5-IO-Zlib. ** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade20100926-29184-lhtw7y-0 env UPGRADE_TOOL=portupgrade UPGRADE_PORT=p5-IO-Zlib-1.10 UPGRADE_PORT_VER=1.10 make ** Fix the problem and try again. ---> Skipping 'archivers/p5-Archive-Tar' (p5-Archive-Tar-1.68) because a requisite package 'p5-IO-Zlib-1.10' (archivers/p5-IO-Zlib) failed (specify -k to force) ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) ! archivers/p5-IO-Zlib (p5-IO-Zlib-1.10) (unknown build error) * archivers/p5-Archive-Tar (p5-Archive-Tar-1.68) If I try and run pkg_delete p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1 it won't let me because the package is in use. How do I upgrade? Did I miss some obvious instructions? All UPDATING says is: 20100921: AFFECTS: users of p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-* AUTHOR: m...@freebsd.org The p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-Base, p5-IO-Compress-Zlib and p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2 ports have been replaced by p5-IO-Compress. Users of Perl 5.10 and higher do not need to install this module because it is already included in the standard perl distribution. I tried following the instructions above about running make deinstall and now I get: [Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 238 packages found (-1 +0) (...) done] Stale dependency: p5-Archive-Tar-1.68 --> p5-IO-Zlib-1.10 -- manually run 'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force. I've tried running pkgdb -F, but it is just asking my a lot of questions like: Duplicated origin: archivers/p5-IO-Compress - p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015 p5-IO-Compress-Base-2.015 p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.015 p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1 Unregister any of them? [no] and I have no idea what the right answer is. I am running perl 5.8.9 and Freebsd 7.1 Any help is appreciated since I am completely lost. I've been freebsd for many years on my personal server but never encountered a mess like this before.
