Anyone have a way to fix this:

Building new INDEX files... done.

portmaster-1.9                      !   Comparison failed

Version 1.9 is really old, we're up to version 1.20 now. Are you sure your port tree is up to date?

it happens when i run portsnap and then get new ports via:

pkg_version -v | grep \<

I can't think of any reason that wouldn't work, which leads me to believe that you've got bigger "issues" lurking somewhere.

i tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the ports above but it didnt fix the issue.

I assume that after you reinstalled portmaster that you had version 1.20?

I use portmaster to update ports. I do not have any other port management tool installed.

Before I wrote the -L feature for portmaster, I used to use 'pkg_version -v -L=' as an alias to find out what needed rebuilding. Assuming you're using version 1.20 of portmaster, you might want to check the man page and try the -L option to see if portmaster can find the problem.

hth,

somehow i had /var/db/pkg entries for 1.9 and 1.20. I deleted the 1.9. thanks for the info. things seem to look good now
