In case you did already remove all installed ports, you need to install them (portinstall command). You can do a port upgrade only for ports that are installed, as the system doesn't keep a "which ports have been installed before they got removed" database automatically. You need to use portmaster, the "make install" framework or pkg_add -r to install the ports you want to have on your system. I hope I did understand your statement correctly. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
