Well, not exactly consistent, apparently. I did: sudo nice port upgrade -u outdated But this then results in many erros due to non-versioned dependencies: ---> Activating grace 5.1.20_0Error: Activating grace 5.1.20_0 failed: Image error: Another version of this port (grace @5.1.18_0) is already active.

Therefore I say > sudo nice port upgrade outdated which works for all (!) ports but grace: ---> Activating grace 5.1.20_0Error: Activating grace 5.1.20_0 failed: Image error: Another version of this port (grace @5.1.18_0) is already active.

I normally retreat to port upgrade outdatedbut this did not work for grace, whereas it worked for pango and sqlite3 and also worked all the times I used it before.
No problem, I could easily work around it, just thought I let you know. Btw, it would be nice to have "port upgrade -u" really work.Anyway, thank all of you very much for your help and a beautiful system (MacPorts;)!
