Hi, Yesterday evening I tried upgrading my ports by using the portupgrade tool. The exact command that I used was:
portupgrade -a --batch All but one package failed to build properly. The offending package was git. For some reason it could not find the p5-xyz module while these were properly installed. Not able to get around the problem I finally tried the FORCE_PKG_REGISTER approach after reading about this on the net and in the output of the portupgrade run. This installed git and I thought everything was running fine till today. After rebooting I saw ddclient was no longer able to run. If I check /var/log/messages it complains that it can't load p5-IO-Socket-SSL. I can't get ddclient to work. A "make deinstall; make reinstall" does not work. Currently I am trying "portupgrade -a -f --batch" to try and rebuild every port on my system. What could have been the original problem with git and how can I get out of this nasty situation? My system is running FreeBSD 7.1-p2.
