Hi
I'm running FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p3, and now I'm trying to upgrade all programs installed via ports on my system. I have done
Portupgrade will continue but it takes a very long time to compile all packages so I'd rather find binary packages.
Browsing ftp.freebsd.org I find the binary package that portupgrade is looking for in:
/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-current/All
I then try to set both PACKAGESITE and PKG_PATH to:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org//pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-current/All
but this doesn't change anything. Portupgrade still looks in 8.2 directory.
Is my ports directory somehow synced to the version 9 of FreeBSD? Can I sync it back to 8.2? Or can I somehow make portupgrade look in the version 9 directory?
Thanks in advance.
I'm running FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p3, and now I'm trying to upgrade all programs installed via ports on my system. I have done
portsnap fetch && portsnap update
without problem. When I try to run portupgrade -aPc
I eventually get this error:
