UPGRADE TO RELEASE 8.0-P3/SAMBA HELP REQUIRED

[Andy Hiscock]

Why during the upgrade process the "inspecting system" shouldnt be able to find and identify and prepair everything that needs to be upgraded and reconfigured accordingly.  Surely thats what "Inspecting system" is meant to be doing.  No matter if it is FreeBSD 1.0 or the prior version to the upgrade

Again Ports?   What is that about...  I've run the server and upgraded from 7.0-7,2 with no problem or need to change any config files before.  Its upgraded with no problem before.

How do I install "Ports"?  How do I reinstall Samba without getting a error -1 in sysinstall?

[snip rest of useless rant]

Never come across this myself til now, but it seems there's a problem
in ports that touches Samba.  Probably related to your Samba install
complaining. From a ports tree updated just a while ago:

bash3-3.2.51 Dependency: gettext-0.17_1
gettext-0.17_1 Information for gettext-0.17_1:
lynx-2.8.7.1_1,1 Dependency: gettext-0.18_1
mutt-devel-1.5.20_5 Dependency: gettext-0.18_1
popt-1.14_1 Dependency: gettext-0.18_1
samba34-3.4.5_1 Dependency: gettext-0.18_1
wget-1.12_1 Dependency: gettext-0.18_1

I guess it's a choice between bash working, or everything else working.
