Is there a way to use the current ports system if I am still running 5.3?
I really need to update subversion, mysql, plus make sure I'm running the latest versions of other software, but since 5.4 came out (and now 5.5 and 6.0), I am no longer been able to get new ports. If change my cvs-supfile to be: ------ *default tag=RELENG_5_4 *default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/var/db *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress ports-all ------ It deletes all my ports. This is also true of RELENG_5_4 Someone in a previous thread about 6 months ago suggested I do this, but it doesn't work. Am I going something wrong, or is this just impossible? I also can't update using packages for (I assume) similar reasons. I can't upgrade my server because it will take me a week to get physical access to it and get it back, and I can't be down that long right now. If someone can point me to some specific information that will help, I would be very appreciative. I have gone though all the books and searched the web and nothing is popping out for me.
