>Description:
I upgraded by CD from 4.8 to 4.10-RC3 selecting X-Kern-Developer.
Pkg_add complained about old versions of packages such as
freetype2 and pkgconfig.
The old versions of packages that are to be updated should be
automatically uninstalled first.
>How-To-Repeat:
After deleting one package on the next attempt pkg_add complained
about another package.
>Fix:
Deselect X during the upgrade and install XFree86* manually.
