I will be upgrading my ports tree from 4.1-release to 4.2-release when 4.2 comes out. This is my first ports upgrade. So I was wondering if my action plan looks right:
- backup my existing 4.1 /usr/ports directory - untar the 4.2 ports tgz file in /usr/ports - go to /usr/ports/path/to/application to update each application - do I need to do this for each individual application I installed from the ports tree? Is there any automated way of doing this? - also is there any way to distinguish applications I installed from the package list and applications I installed from the ports tree? Thanks.
