Hi All,
I recently noticed if I update a package from ports, the package
manager looses the dependency data for the package. eg: updating
old version of gettext
# pkg_info -R gett*
Information for gettext-0.14.5_1:
Required by:
libgpg-error-1.1
libgcrypt-1.2.2
gnutls-1.2.9
p5-gettext-1.03
gmake-3.80_2
[[[ update from ports - make ; make deinstall ; make reinstall ]]]
# pkg_info -R gett*
Information for gettext-0.14.5_2:
Is my procedure incorrect, or is this normal behavior?
-Thanks, Wayne
