I have seen some bumps on upgrades and usually for the major ones, I
wait about 2 days for any port changes to occur and then run the
upgrades. I have to ask but did you follow the instructions in
/usr/ports/UPDATING? If not, you will run into problems like this.
come on ... don't through it on me and do not make such kind of
questions, part of this thread is that the instructions from UPDATING
are not accurate
so, back to the issue:
have you understood what is happening?
I hear that you have reported something that I cannot reproduce. I
have to ask how I can reproduce it or we cannot help either improve what
you did or improve the process.
I did not have this happen to me and I am trying to understand why but
when I ask questions, you keep telling me to read but I have read your
emails and they are general and lack anything actionable since I and
others cannot reproduce this with the limited information.
If yes, then read further, the real problem starts after it, want to
know what it is?
the to-be-upgraded port was build, the original or former version was
already DE-INSTALLED
the install pre-check detects a missing port and starts the process I
explained in the former message
NOW. remember, it fails because of wrong version detection and tried
to install instead of upgrading the dependency
The only other idea I have here is that your port tree is corrupted and
should be removed and repulled but I bet you will give me some further
comments about not reading what you have written. Again, I did not have
these issues.
NOW, the upgrade process fails because of the failing install process
AND NOW the original to be upgraded port IS NOT on the system any
more,
it is not being RE-INSTALLED under this conditions we are speaking
about!
BUT the upgrade-all-process goes on with the next port in line as
supposed to
BUT now more and more things fail, because of MISSING parts
NOW you have to identify everything one-by-one and the nightmare
starts, because now it ends up in real work
and please, if you pretend to through it on me or my machine or
setup,
don't spend your time, don't answer, don't worry and lets wait
until
somebody gets it
thanks
