Skipping certain ports, no upgrade of installed packages ...
How can prevent a given package from being reinstalled during the next portupgrade when I want to delete permanently? An example is the Galeon browser. Since it also appears in the gnome2-fifth-toe makefile t will automatically be rebuilt. 2nd question: how can I just keep a given version without having it upgraded? Thanks alot in advance. -- Kiffin Gish [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The conventional tool, portupgrade, uses /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf to HOLD a package (not upgrade). The pkgtools.conf.sample file is well annotated and has many other available options. Take a look at that and see if it will do the job.

Unfortunately the real answer here is for these ports to grow OPTIONS. In that way your preferences will be saved in a convenient way that will work with whatever port management tool you choose. The second most convenient way would be to use sysutils/portconf, and add the IGNORE option that LoN suggested. The least convenient way for you to do this and have it persist across port tree upgrades is to write it directly into /etc/make.conf in the manner LoN suggested. 2nd question: how can I just keep a given version without having it upgraded? portupgrade introduced the idea of placing an +IGNOREME file in /var/db/pkg/portname. I recently added support for that feature in portmaster as well. hth, Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: maintainer timeout
# [EMAIL PROTECTED] / 2006-05-08 22:27:41 +0200: Hi, I've just discovered that one of my ports has been updated without my approval. The CVS log states maintainer timeout, but I don't recall ever getting a notification. Maybe it got shredded by my spam filter in which case it's entirely my fault of course, but even then I'd still like to see the original PR, which I can't seem to find. So, what went wrong here? http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?200602211626.k1LGQjnU044414 Did you ever get a response to this? -- How many Vietnam vets does it take to screw in a light bulb?
