Default gnome_upgrade.sh
Hi all,

I've been trying to install gnome 2.24 (had gnome 2.20)for couple of days and did not follow the upgrade tips on freebsd gnome site. well, when things got out of control i went look for documentation and found that there is a script that can be used but i cant found the script on the address given...

http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnome_upgrade.sh

I found a solution that was following /usr/ports/UPDATING 20090114. I didnt try that yet, but i was wondering if i could find the script, anyone saved it?? If not, can I alter that tip so i could only "portupgrade -OW gnome2" in place of "portupgrade -aOW"??

I'd suggest uninstalling Gnome and starting over. Upgrading over multiple version numbers is just not a good idea.

# pkg_deinstall -R x11/gnome2

which requires that portupgrade is installed. This will save your previous setup files.
