Hi folks
I am prepared upgrading kde-3.1.4 to kde-3.2.2.
Because I am running FreeBSD 5.2 on a slow PC,
AMD-k6-350, I will take following route
# cd /
# pkg_delete kde\* arts\* qt\* quanta\* kdevelop\*
# env
PACKAGESITE=http://people.fruitsalad.org/lofi/packages/5.2.1-RELEASE/Latest/
pkg_add -r kde
However to avoid running into conflict of dependencies
which are unknown to me I will run following steps
first to upgrade all other packages including
dependencies;
# cd /
# cvsup -g /usr/local/etc/cvsup/ports-supfile
# cvsup -g /usr/local/etc/cvsup/stable-supfile
and then
# portupgrade -aRrv -x kde
I don't know whether the '-x' tag will excluding
upgrading kde otherwise the PC will run for several
days.
Any suggestion? TIA
B.R.
