Sorry. I meant that I had placed a few ports in 'new' directories. By
that I meant:
- I went to the FreeBSD Ports site
- found a port I wanted to upgrade (firefox or fluxbox for example)
- 'make deinstall'ed the one that was installed.
- Copied the directory on the site to a folder within the ports tree
with a similar but different name.
- and then did a 'make install clean'
Then I was enlightened to the fact that this was... not the way to do
things. So on to portupgrades I went. First one or two went without a
hitch.
