csup supfile using date for ports-all
all, I remember seeing a message going by in one of the mailing lists regarding the recent issues with the xorg update last month that mentioned using a date in the supfile in order to get a ports tree prior to the xorg update. I know this is wrong: kolia# cat spec-supfile *default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org *default base=/var/db *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress ports-all date=20090108235500 It blew the ports tree away - so what is right? the new xorg fails on my SiS controller I got desperate and reloaded from 7.1 release and csup RELENG_7 but left the ports tree alone and installed xorg/gnome and at least have a working display again albeit with lots of buggies - figured I'd update the tree to just before the xorg release and wait a while for the issues to get resolved.
