all,
I remember seeing a message going by in one of the mailing lists
regarding the recent issues with the xorg update last month that
mentioned using a date in the supfile in order to get a ports tree prior
to the xorg update.
I know this is wrong:
kolia# cat spec-supfile
*default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
ports-all date=20090108235500
It blew the ports tree away -
so what is right? the new xorg fails on my SiS controller
I got desperate and reloaded from 7.1 release and csup RELENG_7 but left
the ports tree alone and installed xorg/gnome and at least have a
working display again albeit with lots of buggies - figured I'd update
the tree to just before the xorg release and wait a while for the issues
to get resolved.
