Ahah! That is exactly the situation where you do want to remove all your
installed ports and rebuild them.

Yes, i searched all the forums and read a lot about managing ports and

Right now i am stuck.
So, how do i delete really *all* ports and *all* packages at once?
Is it possible with doing a fectch and extract having the latest ports?

I noticed only recently that there are no
upgrading with packages first before recompiling things
you need to recompile.
In principle there is nothing wrong with having mixed self-compiled ports
and packages.
THE MAIN PERILS are letting the ports tree get out of sync with itself.
This could happen, for example, if you cvsup and it stops
Hi,
I'm running RELENG_8_2 and I've been using packages instead of ports for
most things, because they're so much quicker. But certain packages aren't

You can install the ports collection, or install the package with

Thanks in advance,

hat some componants of ports and packages are not
available?
Also, where did the ones that were fetched go? Do I need to remove them, will
they be overwritten if I try again later and there are new ones available?

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but I noticed that when I did
