I am more than one year FreeBSD user :), started with 7.0 and I have to used 
portupgrade but later I did change to portmaster which I like it but few day 
ago I had a problem (on FreeBSD 7.1) with update. Here is a link to the 
FreeBSD forum where I asked about a problem.
Today I installed portupgrade and update was without problem.

Are there some problem with portmaster on 7.1?
Thanks.
