Welcome, fearless user! You are about to embark upon a mystical
journey to the world of xorg 7.2.
-

This upgrade procedure is for users of portupgrade. Users of other
upgrade tools should contact the author for the corresponding upgrade
method for that tool.
-

It is recommended that you run the xorg 7.2 upgrade inside a script(1)
session. This way, if something goes wrong, you will have hopefully
have saved enough information for the developers to debug the problem.
Make sure you choose a filesystem with lots of space for the script
output.

You may wish to set BATCH=yes in the environment to avoid interactive
dialogue boxes.

You may want to consider using portupgrade-devel, which fixes some
annoying bugs that cause upgrades to incorrectly be marked as failed
when they actually completed successfully. To switch to
portupgrade-devel:

# portupgrade -f -o ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel portupgrade

For users of csh-like shells:
# setenv XORG_UPGRADE yes

For users of sh-like shells:

Unfortunately portupgrade (nor portupgrade-devel) cannot yet handle
the rigors of the xorg upgrade without a small bit of help:

# portupgrade -Rf libXft
Now you are ready to upgrade everything:

# portupgrade -a

When packages are available (wait for the announcement on ports@), you
may prefer to use precompiled packages to speed up the process:

# portupgrade -aP
-
+
Once the upgrade completes successfully, you can delete the
xorg-manpages package, which is now orphaned.
-
+
# pkg_delete xorg-manpages\*

The final step is to merge remaining files from /usr/X11R6 into
/usr/local (/usr/X11R6 is no longer used with xorg 7.2) and replace
/usr/X11R6 with a symlink.

this by hand): it will first attempt to back up your /usr/X11R6 into

When the merge operation completes successfully, the /usr/X11R6
directory hierarchy will be removed and replaced by a symlink to
/usr/local. This symlink is necessary because some binary ports (and
some remaining source ports) have hard-coded references to /usr/X11R6.
