Upgrading firefox 1.5 to 2.0
Hi, I'm using FreeBSD v6.2. It comes with FireFox 1.5 and I want to upgrade it to version 2.0. I've updated my ports collection with pkg_version -v. But I don't see the FireFox 2.0 in my ports. However I see a port for FireFox 2 in the ports collection in the web site of FreeBSD. Isn't supposed that it must appear in my ports collection once I've updated it? Then I try with portupgrade –R firefox and I get the following message: Stale dependency: firefox-1.5.0.8,1 -- perl-5.8.8_1 – manually run 'pkgdb –F' to fix (-0 disallowed when –R is given). Can someone help me? Thanks, -- Robe.
