>Description:
Yesterday I ran portupgrade -arR after cvsupping src-all, src-contrib, and ports-all
portupgrade told me to run pkgdb -F, so I did. Then I ran portupgrade -arR all through yesterday.
This morning, after it was finished, I ran it again to make sure nothing was missed. Oddly, it told me again to run pkgdb -F. So I did. The output is listed below - I just hit <ENTER> through the various prompts.
BTW: portupgrade upgraded kde to 3.5.3, so I don't know why kde-3.5.2 has a lock on gnu-libtool-1.5.20 - it's supposed to be gone, but isn't.
Also, I see that /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb and /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade were upgraded overnight to version 2.0.1. They seemed to work yesterday. And I suppose portupgrade is still working, I just can't get past pkgdb right now.
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 388 packages found (-1 +1) (...). done]
Missing origin: bsdpan-CPAN-1.87
-> Ignored. (the package is held; specify -f to force)
Missing origin: bsdpan-PathTools-3.19
-> Ignored. (the package is held; specify -f to force)
Missing origin: bsdpan-Term-ReadLine-Perl-1.0302

Stale origin: 'devel/gnu-libtool': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
-> The port 'devel/gnu-libtool' was removed on 2006-06-05 because:
"Has expired: devel/libtool15 is now stock and should be used instead"
-> Hint: gnu-libtool-1.5.20 is required by the following package(s):
kde-3.5.2
-> Hint: checking for overwritten files...
-> No files installed by gnu-libtool-1.5.20 have been overwritten by other packages.
Deinstall gnu-libtool-1.5.20 ? [no]
Duplicated origin: misc/gnome-mime-data - gnome-mime-data-2.4.2 gnomemimedata-2.4.2
Unregister any of them? [no]
Stale dependency: akode-2.0,1 -> akode-plugins-oss-2.0,1 ():
akode-2.0,1 (score:31%) ? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [no]
Install stale dependency? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [yes]
