Yes, I know. I just didn't expect that ports keep config files around in
their directory ...

Next problem ;-) Actually portupgrading something ...

re-cvsupping, cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade && make deinstall &&
make install don't help.

I have ls -1d /var/db/pkg/ruby*
    /var/db/pkg/ruby-1.6.8.2004.04.16_1
    /var/db/pkg/ruby-1.8.1.2004.05.02
    /var/db/pkg/ruby-shim-ruby18-1.8.1.p3
    /var/db/pkg/ruby18-bdb1-0.2.2
and
    portupgrade-20040529_2

Anyone ?
