Hi,
On my FreeBSD box running 8.0-RELEASE-p3, I have tried to use PORTMASTER tool to upgrade my ports via packages only.
Then I added the following line to my user's .cshrc file and root's .cshrc file, and re-opened user's session :
setenv PACKAGESITE ftp://ftp.fr.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All/
Then I typed this linde into a console :
% sudo portmaster -PP -a -x openoffice
I past the output :
===>>> The following actions will be taken if you choose to proceed:
Upgrade automounter-1.4.2 to automounter-1.4.3
Upgrade liveMedia-2010.05.29,1 to liveMedia-2010.06.11,1
Upgrade portmaster-2.29 to portmaster-2.32
Upgrade bash-4.1.5_2 to bash-4.1.7
Upgrade iso-codes-3.16_1 to iso-codes-3.17
Upgrade p5-libwww-5.834 to p5-libwww-5.836

Upgrade libassuan-1.0.5 to libassuan-2.0.0
Upgrade wine-1.2.r3,1 to wine-1.2.r4,1

===>>> The newest available package (automounter-1.3.4)
is older than the version in ports (automounter-1.4.3)
===>>> Try --packages-if-newer, or do not use -PP/--packages-only
===>>> Aborting update
===>>> Update for automounter-1.4.2 failed
===>>> Aborting update
The strange thing is the 'automounter-1.4.3' package is available on the FTP repository configured for PACKAGESITE.
Elsewhere, I have tested these FTP repositories (for PACKAGESITE variable) without success :
ftp://ftp.fr.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/Lastest/
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/Lastest/
ftp://ftp.fr.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All/
Thanks in advance for your help.
