portupgrade troubles
Hello I post the questions several months a go but I find until now no solutions. If I use portupgrade -fa I get the folowing error: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/pkgversion.rb:41:in `initialize': ,2: Not in due form: '[_][,]'. (ArgumentError) from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:638:in `new' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:638:in `main' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:613:in `each' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:613:in `main' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:588:in `catch' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:588:in `main' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:1303:in `call' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:1303:in `parse_in_order' ... 7 levels... from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:785:in `initialize' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:229:in `new' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:229:in `main' from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:2173 But get no answer and find no solution for my problem.

After a long time, I've got a little free time and spent it working for portupgrade. A new version (2.4.0) was released. * Many bugs fixed (thanks to reporters). * At last I've finished rewriting code and portupgrade now controls all tasks (before some port installed without a portupgrade note). As a result portupgrade gathers all depends for a port. It spends a time for preparing in the beginning of a upgrade process. * I've change unused -c and -C options to allow run 'make config-conditional' and 'make config' (force options change) before all processing. Test the release please. To move from portupgrade to portupgrade-devel port, use the command: portupgrade -fo ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel portupgrade If you'll want to back to stable porupgrade, use the command: portupgrade -o ports-mgmt/portupgrade portupgrade-devel -- Dixi.

Which is why, on my mailer, quoting you gives a full line then one word then a line...it kind of reminds me of a person I knew in college who typed his first multipage essay with the hard linefeeds at the end of each line instead of the end of each paragraph, then made a change near the beginning and foobar'd his formatting for the whole document... :-) That's all too complicated. It is really because many people read their mail on text only readers - such as on a console without much gui stuff or whatever. So, the stuff either just wraps at lousy places and runs stuff together or it ignores all the html or other markup junk that clutters up the message file and splats it all out on the screen just as it gets it which is hard to read. In the FAQ (and the conversation I had with the person on the OS X lists), it isn't HTML, and it isn't a GUI thing. Format=flowed works in several console programs, from what the FAQ said. Re: HTML, the FAQ said: No. Nothing. Format=flowed applies solely to plain-text messages. HTML messages already have something functionally equivalent to f=f: the attribute, which... um... quotes blocks of text. When f=f mailers that also can handle HTML encounter text, it’s usually marked up with the same excerpt bars we’re familiar with from f=f. Format=flowed isn’t actually at work there, but since text flows nicely when you resize a window, the effect is the same. A return in there usuall doesn't mess up the gui Email readers. They tend to ignore it. But it sure helps text based Email readers. Actually, it is displaying oddly in my MUA...because of the hard returns mixed with the f=f. Incidentally, can others on the list verify where my mail is wrapping? I was working with someone offlist to see if, in Mail.app, my wrapping is affected by the size of the composition window when I send the message. I noticed that quirk in a few other OS X apps when working with printing documents...WYSIWYG taken to an extreme :-) -Bart ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I do it manually - just hit that nice big Enter/Return key between a couple of word when I get out around that far. Some Mail clients allow you to set a line length and then try to break between word near there. Most editors such as vi allow something like this too. I am using vi, but have a long habit of hitting return from way back in the days of typewriters (I'm old) so I never even bother to set anything in vi.I just miss the bell 'ding' and sound of the platen or type ball moving back each time. Maybe that could be simulated. > I went to the MacOSX admin mailing list and asked there.

Portupgrade troubles, interactive ports
Hi there, I use to run portupgrade and when it ran into an interactive port (like php) it would sit and wait for my input before continuing. This worked fine and I didn't mind having to keep a bit of an eye on portupgrade. However now when I run portupgrade (portupgrade -ra) it stalls when it runs into an interactive port. I can't enter any input and ctrl-C/ctrl-z do nothing. I end up killing the process from another terminal. I have tried this over ssh and also from the console. I am currently running 5.2 release. I am sorry if this has been answered before but I didn't see mention of it in the archives or in other reference sources.
