Re: Update a package
from /usr/ports/UPDATE, you need to rebuild all ports... AFFECTS: users of devel/gettext (i.e.: YOU) AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED] As a result of the upgrade to gettext-0.17, the shared library version of libintl has changed, so you will need to rebuild all ports that depend on gettext: # portupgrade -rf gettext # portmaster -r gettext\* Given the scope and sheer number of dependent ports, it may be more advisable to simply blow away all existing install ports (after keeping any local configuration changes), and rebuilding from scratch. good luck!!

RE: Update a package
So am I to understand the package tree is considered part of the ports, i've fetching the packages from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/sparc64/packages-6-stable/All/ I don't have a local ports tree, since i'm tight on space ( only 20gig HDD ). Can ports be fetched remotely? Thanks Gary from /usr/ports/UPDATE, you need to rebuild all ports...

Re: Update a package
From: Gary Hartl [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all; Ok uber noob question here. I have gettext-0.14.5 installed from the package tree, I want to update to gettext-0.17_1 Is there a ways to do that with the pkg_add or some other command? I google'ed it and only found ways to update local ports sources...(which means I either suck at google or fbsd or both) Thanks for understanding my noobness. Gary Personally, I would just insure that my ports tree was up-to-date and then use either 'portmanager' or 'portupgrade' to handle the chore. My preference is for 'portmanager'. -- Jerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can ports be fetched remotely? Sure. pkg_add(1) has a '-r' option for fetching remotely, and portupgrade(1) has a '-P' option to specify using packages (it will fetch from FreeBSD servers if possible). -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Lowell Gilbert [2008-11-26 11:17:25 -0500]: Sure. pkg_add(1) has a '-r' option for fetching remotely, and portupgrade(1) has a '-P' option to specify using packages (it will fetch from FreeBSD servers if possible). To expand on Lowell's answer, using portupgrade's -P option can avoid a lengthy compile. If no suitable package is available for download, portupgrade -P will fall back to compiling the port from sourcecode. To avoid this, use -PP. Very handy when dealing with big packages like koffice. :-) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
