Hello everybody,
I did a binary upgrade on my FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE system up to 6.1
RELEASE. However, I'm still running KDE 3.4 and firefox still doesn't
work. I didn't understand this, but apparently the ports that are
installed to a system don't upgrade with a binary upgrade. Ok, so,
the question is now, how do I upgrade my ported applications, KDE and
firefox most noteably, to the versions that are installed with the
ports when one does a 6.1 installation? I know that I must upgrade
many of the GTK stuff for firefox, etc., so how do I go about
upgrading these applications useing disk 2 of the iso images?
Thanks for any help.
Andy
