This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when
upgrading your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions,
but sometimes they are unavoidable.
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each
time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port
upgrades.
20040420:
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/cdrtools
The cdrecord program now uses ${PREFIX}/etc (e.g. /usr/local/etc) instead
of /etc/default as the location of the global configuration file. If you
created such a configuration file you need to copy it over to the new
location.
20040420:
AFFECTS: users of x11/kdebase3
If you update KDE from version 3.2.1 or earlier to version 3.2.2 while
running a KDE session, newly opened instances of Konqueror might hang
or crash, depending on how far the update has progressed.
If this happens, it is necessary to restart your KDE session in order to
restore proper operations.
20040404:
AFFECTS: GNOME desktop users
GNOME has been updated to 2.6. Simply portupgrading will cause serious
problems if you are using the desktop itself. If you are a GNOME desktop
user, you should carefully read the instructions at:
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq26.html
And use the gnome_upgrade.sh script to properly upgrade to GNOME 2.6. If
you are just a casual user of some of the GNOME libraries, portupgrade
should be sufficient to update your ports.
20040316:
AFFECTS: users of net/isc-dhcp3-*
The isc-dhcp3-* ports must now be enabled / disabled and configured in
rc.conf. See the pkg-message for details.
20040313:
AFFECTS: users of textproc/expat2
Users of expat2 (and its many dependencies) should do the following to
properly update expat2 and all of its dependencies:
portupgrade -rf textproc/expat2
20040311:
AFFECTS: users of databases/postgresql7
PostgreSQL 7.4.2 Released and release notes available at
http://www.postgresql.org/news/173.html
NOTICE: unlike most minor versions, this version does require some
updates to the pg_* system tables. Full instructions for how to do
this are included in the full HISTORY file.
DO NOT UPGRADE WITHOUT READING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
20040309:
AFFECTS: users of x11/kdelibs3 and x11/kdebase3
If you update kdelibs from version 3.2.0 to version 3.2.1 while running
a KDE 3.2.0 session, newly opened instances of Konqueror will silently
crash as soon as the new version of kdelibs has been installed, due to
mismatching linker symbols.
It is recommended you quit your KDE session at that point and update
kdebase to version 3.2.1, then restart KDE.
20040309:
AFFECTS: users of audio/arts and x11/kdebase
The arts port, PORTVERSION 1.2.1 does not include artswrapper anymore.
Instead, artswrapper is now installed by a new port audio/artswrapper.
Installation of artswrapper is optional, however:
If you presently run KDE and you have "Run with the highest possible
priority (realtime priority)" checked in Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/
Sound System and you choose to NOT install audio/artswrapper, you need to
- Uncheck "Run with the highest possible priority (realtime priority)"
in Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/Sound System BEFORE updating arts
OR
- AFTER updating arts and kdebase, go to Control Center/Sound & Multimedia/
Sound System, click on the unchecked "Run with the highest possible priority
(realtime priority)", dismiss the message telling you that realtime is un-
available or artswrapper is missing and then click Apply.
20040305:
AFFECTS: users of security/antivir-milter
When updating from a previous version of security/antivir-milter you
have to do the following after deinstalling the old port:
rm <PREFIX>/AntiVir/antivir
rm <PREFIX>/AntiVir/antivir.vdf
chown root:wheel <PREFIX>/AntiVir
chown root:smmsp <PREFIX>/AntiVir/hbedv.key
In your SENDMAIL_MC change
`S=unix:<PREFIX>/AntiVir/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:5m'
to:
`S=unix:/var/spool/avmilter/avmilter.sock, F=T, T=S:10m;R:10m;E:10m'
and rebuild sendmail.cf.
If /var/spool/avmilter exist you have to:
chown -R smmsp:smmsp /var/spool/avmilter
If you are using a customized <PREFIX>/etc/avmilter.conf the port
won't remove it on deinstall and you have to manually change User
and Group to smmsp there.
Afterwards you can install the new version of this port. You then
should run antivirupdater to get a current VDF.
20040226:
AFFECTS: i386 users of ruby and portupgrade
Change the default version of ruby to 1.8 for i386.
If you are a ruby developer and want to keep ruby 1.6 as default,
please add RUBY_DEFAULT_VER=1.6 to /etc/make.conf.
Otherwise, please run the following series of commands to migrate to
ruby 1.8:
1) Reinstall portupgrade manually (and as a result ruby 1.8 will be
installed):
pkg_delete portupgrade-\*
(cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade; make install clean)
2) Reinstall everything that depends on ruby 1.6 to use ruby 1.8
instead:
portupgrade -fr lang/ruby16
3) Reinstall ruby 1.8 (because the previous step kills symlinks):
portupgrade -f lang/ruby18
4) Deinstall ruby 1.6 stuff (if you are paranoia):
pkg_deinstall -ri lang/ruby16
5) If the above commands do now work somehow and portupgrade starts
causing LoadError, please reinstall portupgrade manually again.
Whenever you get confused, you can always deinstall portupgrade
and all the ruby stuff (run "pkg_delete -r ruby-\*") and
reinstall portupgrade as a last resort.
20040204:
AFFECTS: 5.2-CURRENT users who started with a 5.2-RELEASE or older.
Change the default version of perl to 5.8.
1) Force perl-5.6.1 to be upgraded with perl-5.8.
portupgrade -o lang/perl5.8 -f perl-5.6.1_15
2) Update all p5-* modules.
portupgrade -f p5-\*
