All the best, John A Other people have mentioned what needs to be done in future(reading /usr/*/UPDATING and portupgrade syntax). For now, you're probably going to need to get your hands dirty: go to OpenSSL in the ports tree, do a "make install" there, try again with Ruby... Basically, try to make the new version of portupgrade, and whenever it complains about a different port, go and fix it; you may need to do more than a few "make deinstall && make reinstall" to deal with version changes. Also, you could try pkg_add -r [portname] for some of these to cut down compile time at least until you can get portupgrade back. -BB ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

AND, /usr/src/UPDATING after a cvsup'ing of your source tree.

In the past, you've installed a port that needed a newer/more-secure version of OpenSSL and installed the port version (or you've installed the port version of OpenSSL intentionally). Either case you're running the port version. 2. You're still using an old, insecure system-version of OpenSSL. If the first is true (ie, you're using the port version of OpenSSL), try portupgrade -aRr. You _may_ get away with that, but I wouldn't recommend it. If the second is true (more likely scenario), then you _have_ to update your src and rebuild your system in order to move on with your port upgrades. My advice would be to update your source. My last clean install was from a 4.9-REL CD and I keep the updates coming (now run 4.10-STABLE). Every update went without any glitches (of course as disclaimers go, everyone has different situations).

John Adams writes: > I ran a cvsup against my supfile, then a portupgrade -a In my opinion, that was your mistake. "portupgrade" is a great product - it sure saves me a ton of work - but it's nowhere near bullet-proof; using it in fire-and-forget mode (and expecially if you don't keep a log) is pinning a "Hurt me" sign on your back.
