HI,

okay one more question.  what is the best method to get rid of all the stale
dependencies please?

--- snip ---

# portupgrade -Rr php4\*
Stale dependency: php4-bz2-4.3.9_1 --> apache-1.3.33_1 -- manually run 'pkgdb
-F' to fix (-O disallowed when -R is given).
hurricane# pkgdb -F
--->  Checking the package registry database
Stale origin: 'devel/autoconf257': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
-> The port 'devel/autoconf257' was removed on 2004-07-01 because:
        "autotools cleanup"
-> Hint: autoconf-2.57_1 is not required by any other package
-> Hint: checking for overwritten files...
 -> No files installed by autoconf-2.57_1 have been overwritten by other packages.
Deinstall autoconf-2.57_1 ? [no] ^C


--- snip ---

cheers,

Noah
