linux compatibility ports upgrade

2009-06-04 Thread Tsu-Fan Cheng
Hi,   Just use portmaster to upgrade ports and found out a lot of linux-*
ports are renewed. But strange to see that upgrading was interrupted by
ports conflicts, such as linux-f8-tiff and linux-tiff. What I have are a
whole bunch of f8 stuff, I dont understand why portmaster choose to upgrade
ports that are not f8. And also curious to know which linux* is better?
with or without f8/f10? thank you!!

Yes, those ports install files with the sane name/path, so they have
a conflict and can't be used/unstalled together.

I don't use portmaster but you are first to complain. Can you show
the output of pkg_info -xI linux?

 And also curious to know which linux* is better?

Hm, it a good question. ;-)
The one which does what you need. But there are some security
problems (seems with pango ports) which won't be resolved for
Fedora Core 4 ports (since there is no new fixed packages).

 with or without f8/f10? thank you!!

It depends on your OS version and your tasks. The default (even
for 8-CURRENT so far) is linux_base-fc4 and it's infrastructure
ports. I think that for FreeBSD-6.x and lower there is no other
alternative. For 7.2-RELEASE (and even better, 7-STABLE) one can
use -f8- base and infrastructure ports. For recent 8-CURRENT one
can use -f10- ports. There is a WIP to change this to default for
8-CURRENT.

Re: linux compatibility ports upgrade

2009-06-04 Thread Tsu-Fan Cheng
It's funny, sometimes I think portmaster knows  that it should upgrade
linux-f8* ports and not linux-* ports but sometimes doesn't. I don't know
why...

OK, you have a mix with FC4 and F8 ports. The best way for you is
to remove all linux ports, clean /compat/linux and reinstall needed
linux applications (i.e. linux-realplayer, acroread8, skype, etc.).

 and I am running 7.2-stable, looks like linux-f8* is just as good to me.

Yes, that may be a good choice for you.
