Okay, did the sudo port -d sync again to get a verbose output, and it updated quite a few items.
Here is the last of it: Total number of ports parsed: 8179 Ports successfully parsed: 8179 Ports failed: 0 Up-to-date ports skipped: 8927 The list is quite long on what was looked at and updated and added. To my eye, I cannot see anything wrong, so tried again with just: Sudo port sync And this time it just had: updating ports tree And went back to the prompt, no errors!! Am wondering if doing this in verbose mode forced it to add the items it needed? Any thoughts? Thanks, Lisa -- Lisa Madden, ACA Sr. Systems Administrator ADNET Systems, Inc.
