Hi list,

/usr/ports/UPDATING reads:

20061009: 

   AFFECTS: users of any ports using Python 

   AUTHOR: perky at FreeBSD.org 

 

   After upgrading of lang/python, you must rebuild all its consumer 

   ports to make them get ready to Python 2.5. 

 

   To do this, you will need to: 

     pkgdb -uf && cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make 
upgrade-site-packages


Doing this yields:

--->  Updating the pkgdb
[Rebuilding the pkgdb <format:bdb_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 147 
packages found (-0 +147) 
................................................................................................................................................... 
done]
Please install sysutils/portupgrade.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/python.
