www/linux-nvu

hi

I've done:
Code:
# portsnap fetch update
# portupgrade -a
on my freeBSD 7.3 Release and getting this error:
Code:
- www/linux-nvu ([color="Red"][B]port directory error[/B][/color])
I cannot find /usr/ports/www/linux-nvu on my system.

linux-nvu is gone, expired, it is no more. The commit message suggests www/kompozer as a replacement.

The error is because you have linux-nvu installed, and portupgrade is trying but can't find the port directory. Use pkg_delete to delete it.

It's a quite strange, I've done an upgrade on other machine from 7.0 to 7.3 RELEASE, then I've done portsnap fetch update, but I still have this port:
Code:
# whereis linux-nvu
linux-nvu: /usr/local/bin/linux-nvu /usr/ports/www/linux-nvu

The first is the installed version, which will stay until you use pkg_delete(1). The second is the directory in the ports tree. No idea why it's still there, unless maybe portsnap is looking at an out-of-date mirror.
