Ouch! It finally did stop - there were error messages with details &
suggestions to mail files developers/maintainers, etc - all of which I
ignored :(
I decided I could clean this up by doing an "update" (via CVSup), followed by
an "upgrade" (via portupgrade). So here's what I did:
# cvsup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile
-- which completely successfully, followed by:
# portupgrade -a
-- which ended badly... a long list of packages (approx 140) that did not
install due to * (skipped) or ! (failed). Some of them look pretty important:
! sysutils/cdrtools (cdrtools-2.0.3) (unknown build error)
* devel/ORBit2 (ORBit2-2.8.2)
etc, etc.
Looking at the terminal log, it appears that the wheels came off because this
port couldn't be fetched:
docbook-xsl-1.62.4
What should my next move be?
THanks,
Jay
