Re: Upgrading 8.2 to 9.1, Gnome issue

and update pkgdb. If I remember correctly, it's portupgrade -arf, but as you're using portupgrade, see man portupgrade, the EXAMPLES section should show the proper options. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa

Re: Upgrading 8.2 to 9.1, Gnome issue

security concerns grow enough to abolish the port. Infrastructures are moving on, and backwards compatibility isn't the biggest strength of desktop environments. :-( -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa

Re: Dependencies after port tree update

can automatically determine which ports need to be worked on (portmaster -a). It's also a nice feature to put the non-interactivity options into a config file (/usr/local/etc/portmaster.rc) so you really only need the -a option if you want to start an update run. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany

Re: LaTeX Error: File `utf8x.def' not found

or something. In your LaTeX source file, you have \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} somewhere, and you're using UTF-8 characters for whatever reason. You need to install the port latex-ucs (in the print category) to make this work. I assume there's also a package for this. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany
