Try running the mergebase.sh script at /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh. My guess is that in the past you began the upgrade path from 6.9 to 7.x but didn't quite finish the procedure (note that is very much a guess). You should probably read through the script before you run it, just in case your system isn't set up as it expects. > > So I guess I'm gonna do a clean install of all of Xbut can you tell > me which packages I should remove exactly? Depends very much on what you have installed - pkg_info(1)'s -r and -R options will help you to build up an overview of what you need to remove/update, if mergebase doesn't work. It's a good idea to save a list of currently-installed ports to refer to in the event this all goes *pop*. Good luck!

Re: error while updating ports: x11/xorg-libraries
Hmm, how did you end up with 7.2 installed, with the old /usr/X11R6 dir? I thought that went away in the transition from 6.9 to 7.2... So it apparently should be.. Anyhow, following Kris' instructions in UPDATING should see you through the upgrade OK. I did it quite painlessly on a few machines, although others did report difficulties. If it comes to it, you can uninstall all your X-related ports and do a clean install of Xorg 7.3 - it'll take a while, but it will get the job done. According to the instructions: Unfortunately portupgrade (nor portupgrade-devel) cannot yet handle the rigors of the xorg upgrade without a small bit of help: # portupgrade -Rf libXft results in: ** Listing the failed packages (*:skipped / !:failed) * x11/xorg-libraries (xorg-libraries-7.2_1) ---> Packages processed: 112 done, 47 ignored, 1 skipped and 0 failed So I guess I'm gonna do a clean install of all of Xbut can you tell me which packages I should remove exactly? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: error while updating ports: x11/xorg-libraries
First off, you should probably update your ports tree. Firefox is now at 2.0.0.11,1, and xorg-libraries is at 7.3_1. I started with updating the ports tree. Then try the upgrade again. If it still fails, show us the errors from the xorg-libraries build.

Installation cannot proceed. This looks like an incompletely removed old version of X.
