The instuctions are for portmaster; the mention of sysutils/portmanager looks
like a typo.

You never actually have to give portmanager any particular hints about what to
do.

The entry says this:

20061014:
AFFECTS: All GNOME users
AUTHOR: gnome(a)FreeBSD.org

GNOME has been updated to 2.16 and all GNOME components have been
moved from X11BASE to LOCALBASE, to upgrade your GNOME desktop and
applications you will need either sysutils/portupgrade or
sysutils/portmaster.

Portupgrade users:
pkgdb -Ff
portupgrade -rf glib-2\* cairo gnome-doc-utils gnome-mime-data \
gnome-audio startup-notification dbus

Portmaster users:
portmaster -r pkg-config\*


The introductory paragraph says "either/or," so it seems pretty clear
to me that if you use portupgrade, do X; if you use portmaster, do Y.
I'm sure however that if you have suggestions for improving that
paragraph, the gnome folks would like to hear them. :)

For those that choose to use portmaster to do the upgrade, first of
all, thanks. :) Second, please make sure that you use the latest
version (1.9), and do NOT attempt this with earlier versions. If you
do, it will fail in a spectacular and painful fashion. I worked
closely with mezz to make sure that portmaster would Do The Right
Thing for this upgrade, and found and fixed several problems with the
way -r was handled previously in the process.

One last thing, you will probably be happier if you add either -d (to
delete all stale distfiles) or -D (to not delete any distfiles) to the
beginning of your command line for portmaster. That way once you get
past the 'make config' stage and actually start building stuff, you
_probably_ won't have to answer any more questions. Also, given that
if this update fails part way through, a backup package of the old
port probably won't help you, you could save yourself some time by
using the -G option as well.

In the unlikely *cough* event that portmaster chokes a bunny while
doing this upgrade for you, please feel free to send a message to the
list, and cc: me. I do pay attention to those messages, but given my
real world commitments at this time, you might very well get the right
answer faster from someone on the -ports@ list before I could provide it.


hth,

Doug

I have added an important sentence in UPDATING about that need to have
least 1.9 version of portmaster to have the upgrade success. Thanks for
remind! :-)

portmaster rocks!

Cheers,
Mezz

Hello and thanks for your hard work!

I've been using WITH_GECKO=seamonkey (and WITH_MOZILLA=seamonkey) and
now when trying to install new Gnome (after uninstalling nearly
everything) I've got the following error message from yelp installation:

checking which gecko to use... seamonkey
checking for compiler -fshort-wchar option... yes
checking whether to enable C++ RTTI... no
checking whether we have a gtk 2 gecko build... yes
checking whether we have a gecko debug build... no
checking for gecko version... 1.8
configure: error: seamonkey is not supported
===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please run the gnomelogalyzer, available from
"http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnomelogalyzer.sh", which will diagnose the
problem and suggest a solution. If - and only if - the gnomelogalyzer cannot
solve the problem, report the build failure to the FreeBSD GNOME team at
gnome(a)FreeBSD.org, and attach (a)
"/usr/ports/x11/yelp/work/yelp-2.16.1/config.log", (b) the output of the
failed make command, and (c) the gnomelogalyzer output. Also, it might be a
good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system
(i.e. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). Put your attachment up on any website,
copy-and-paste into http://freebsd-gnome.pastebin.com, or use send-pr(1)
with
the attachment. Try to avoid sending any attachments to the mailing list
(gnome(a)FreeBSD.org), because attachments sent to FreeBSD mailing lists are
usually discarded by the mailing list software.

I cannot see a reason why seamonkey wouldn't be supported (and it's
listed in yelp/Makefile).
Could you please check and fix this ?

Cheers,

Martin
