upgrade on X.Org and WRKDIRPREFIX ?

Hello all

I would like to upgrade X.Org but i saw that to compile xorg , 4 Go is required.
Actually i have 3 Go left on /usr after having done portsclean -CDD

will the below commands work to solve my problem ?
export $WRKDIRPREFIX=<directory with more place>
portupgrade -r xorg

Thanks for any answer

If you use bash or sh, yes. If you use (t)csh use setenv WRKDIRPREFIX /place/with/lots/of/room.

Do note that some distfiles might need to be downloaded and stored in /usr/ports/distfiles.
 
I've used $WRKDIRPREFIX in the past without issues. If you're lazy like me, just
# echo "setenv WRKDIRPREFIX /smoot/hawley" >> /etc/csh.cshrc && echo "export WRKDIRPREFIX=/smoot/hawley" >> /etc/profile
Which should make it work whether you're in a login shell or not, regardless of /bin/sh, /bin/csh, /bin/tcsh, or /usr/local/bin/bash.

Elephino what zsh, ksh, or any of sash, ash, mudsh want you do to.
 
Well it does not work

when i input portgrade -r xorg
it says

This is a meta-port, meaning that it just depends on its subparts of the port.
It won't build and install all the parts until you have typed make install
This port does not ensure things are upgraded; use portupgrade if you want to
upgrade X.Org.  If you simply type 'make install' it may use over 2GB to build
all of the subports.  You can install the ports singly if you are low on space.

But i m sure xorg is not up to date
pk_version -v gives

What is the correct way to upgrade xorg ?
 
You did: # portupgrade -r xorg, when you wanted to do # portupgrade -R xorg.

Or maybe, if you're not on some hideously slow machine, # portupgrade -fR xorg.


Also, note that x11/xorg is just a meta-port, which can be deleted immediately after it is used to install the actual xorg stuffs.
