gmake upgrade
Hello list! it may be a stupid question, but i'm a little bit scared before gmake upgrade. I'm not using portupgrade, everything is build from the ports tree, so, when some package is old, and there is newer version in ports, then make all && make deinstall && make install && make clean. It works pretty fine for now. But what about gmake? Will I be able to compile new gmake sources when I'll do `make deinstall in /usr/ports/devel/gmake` first? Few details: pkg_version | grep "<" gmake < pkg_info | grep gmake gmake-3.80_2GNU version of 'make' utility the latest version in my ports tree is make-3.81 The system is FreeBSD 6.1 Release with latest patches it can be a problem like chmod -x /bin/chmod, but maybe You have an idea?
