portmaster error

hi there!
for long time I didn't upgrade my FreeBSD box and today after
Code:
#portsnap fetch update
I tried [CMD="portmaster"] -a[/CMD]
and I got:
Code:
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/x11-toolkits/pango/work/pango-1.26.2/modules'
  GEN    pango.modules
Writing a pango.modules file to use with tests/examples.

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/pango.

===>>> make failed for x11-toolkits/pango
===>>> Aborting update
that message: "Shared object "librpcsvc.so.4" not found, required by "libX11.so.6"" I've got when I tried to upgrade xcursor-themes

How can I fix that?
thanks
 
If you haven't updated the ports tree in awhile, you will definitely need to read through /usr/ports/UPDATING. A *LOT* of ports have new library versions and major changes, requiring a specific order to updating some ports (like png, jpeg, X, KDE, etc).
 
Has portsmgr issued an all-clear, or are they still recommending against upgrades while they work through the wide-ranging changes that are underway?
 
Not yet, I believe.

If anyone needs to install new software or update a port (esp. stuff linking against X and image libs), I suggest they hold off on that until about April 10 and then use /usr/ports/UPDATING to get back on track. Anyone running portmaster -a or portupgrade -a on an outdated ports installation right now is bound to end up here in a blind panic.
