Hi,

I have a question about the updating of ports.
This is the script I run every week:

#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean -CD
/usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 /usr/local/etc/cvsup/ports-all
/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu
/usr/local/sbin/portversion -v | /usr/bin/grep needs | /usr/bin/mail -s "Ports that need updating" email@address.com


But I've never got any mail containing any updates.
When I run portversion -v it says all the ports are up to date. But when I check the FreeBSD Port Changes there are a lot of new versions out.

This is the output (http://stegg-inc.com/portsoutput.txt) I get of the script.

This is the portversion -v output (http://stegg-inc.com/versionoutput.txt).

Hi,

I have a question about the updating of ports.
This is the script I run every week:

[code:1:0002e4c174]#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/sbin/portsclean -CD
/usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 /usr/local/etc/cvsup/ports-all
/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu
/usr/local/sbin/portversion -v | /usr/bin/grep needs | /usr/bin/mail -s "Ports that need updating" email@address.com
[/code:1:0002e4c174]

But I've never got any mail containing any updates.
When I run portversion -v it says all the ports are up to date. But when I check the FreeBSD Port Changes there are a lot of new versions out.

This is the output (http://stegg-inc.com/portsoutput.txt) I get of the script.

This is the portversion -v output (http://stegg-inc.com/versionoutput.txt).

It's most likely because [code:1:0002e4c174]/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu
[/code:1:0002e4c174] is not completing. It's probably not really required for the script to work either.

[Stegnation]

I've left it out, but it still gives me no new versions.

[Loop]

Here's what I use:
[code:1:b5cdd8bd49]
loop@erwin ~ % less /usr/local/bin/update-ports.sh
#!/usr/local/bin/zsh

Your script works. But when I try to do a 'portupgrade -a' I get these errors at the end.

Well, it's couldn't be anything to do with the script ...

Does everything work if you do the "standard"

[code:1:782c9b9d0f]cd /usr/ports
make update
portupgrade -aR
[/code:1:782c9b9d0f]

[Stegnation]

This is what I get:

[Loop]

Looks like you can't delete ruby-rdoc because the file pkg_plist is gone (deleted with the removal of ruby-rdoc from the ports tree)

Not real sure of where to go, try running pkgdb -F and answering no, instead of yes to the question.

This sort of lines..

I seem to get over and over. All with old package names that don't exist anymore. When I check the directory it has all new versions, but the portupgrade and pkgdb, etc keep looking for the old directories which don't exist anymore.

[Stegnation]

When I check /var/db/pkg I see directories with all the new version instead of the old versions. But the new versions aren't installed. When I try to upgrade a port it complaints it can't backup or deinstall the old version because the port's directory (the old version's) doesn't exist anymore.
