Hi,
A bit delayed :) but I finally got the tarball (the "latest" one from the
Wiki page) and I proceeded to upgrading. Everything related to the xorg-*
ports seemed to go just fine. After ~36 hours of compiling and numerous
"portupgrade -a" it came down to the failure of the following, that
prevented the upgrade of the rest ports. The "faulted" ones are:
x11-toolkits/tix
x11-toolkits/qt4-gui
devel/sdl12
graphics/gimp
print/gutenprint
I'm not sure why the gimp and related port, showed up problems. I had
upgraded it the way the UPGRADE said a month ago. Anyway, I can remove
them and try again.
The links to the scripts of the failing ones (bziped and bunzipped):

http://www.physics.upatras.gr/~laganakos/files/freebsd/devel_sdl12

Any clues about this? I followed exactly the procedure you described for
the upgrading. I havent though executed the merging script, because I'm
not sure if I should run this after the first portupgrade -a, or wait
until everything has compliled and upgraded correctly. (This was not
very clear)
Xorg 7.2 though, works sweet and I have the impression that my X600
radeon is going faster :)
Thanx to everyone that worked on the port!
Kind regards,
Vassilis
