Today. I tried to upgrade my freebsd FreeBSD 9.1 box. But I got a few errors with help2man.[ ]I did try to search for the error via this forum and Google. But I did not find a solution. I'm hoping you guys can help me out.

Output:

In addition to this I hope my spelling and grammar in this topic are okay.
 
Greetings,
Just choose i here. This is a harmless error. It means you have not created the directory for backup packages, or the previous version(s) were not where this version expects them. Won't interfere with the new version. But won't permit the ability to revert to previous version, using the portmaster backup package. That's all.

Best wishes.
