Re: [GENERAL] FreeBSD portupgrade of 8.1 -> 8.2

[Decibel!]

You can force the pkg_delete with -f (or maybe -F). You'll want to delete all the postgresql (ie: postgresql-*) packages as well, and then re-install them after you install 8.2.

I've got 8.1 running fine. I want to upgrade to 8.2. Problem is, FreeBSD's portupgrade utility only wants to upgrade my existing 8.1 installation.

      Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

So I ran: pkg_delete postgresql-client-8.1.10

... and got this error:


and may not be deinstalled:
dovecot-1.0.0
kde-3.5.6_1
koffice-1.6.2_3,2
php5-extensions-1.1
php5-pgsql-5.2.3
postgresql-libpqxx-2.6.9
postgresql-plperl-8.1.9
postgresql-server-8.1.10_2



What's the portupgrade process in FreeBSD??



TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend

So I grabbed the latest ports collection, which includes postgresql82-client and postgresql82-server. Running 'make install' on postgresql82-client gives me: pkg_delete: package 'postgresql-client-8.1.10' is required by these other packages I seem to have hit a brick wall. I tried installing postgresql82- server first but it wouldn't do that without the 8.2 client library installed. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)---------------------------
