 does not work for xfree
Author: hc

Hi,
I have installed freebsd 4.5 and portupgrade.

I have previously installed XFree86-4 by doing pkg-add -r XFree86-4.
this installs version 4.1.0
Now I did pkg_db -F, and no problems

however, when doing portupgrade I do not get the latest xfree86-4.0.2.

does portupgrade use the 4.5-version packages? Or the latest for all versions?

Also i cannot find the xfree86 in the database.

lots of trouble thus.

please email comments to me if you have them.
