Thank you so much Stuart: I downloaded maxima-5.46.0.tar.gz and untarred it in /usr. I followed the instructions at: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/ports/ports.html#PortsFetch
I'll blow away /usr/ports and reinstall. Again thanks so much On Wed, May 24, 2023, at 07:37, Stuart Henderson wrote: > On 2023/05/24 07:18, Jonathan Drews wrote: > > I almost forgot.
