Some additional information: prunille:~> port installed m4 The following ports are currently installed: m4 @1.4.4_0 (active) m4 @1.4.8b_1+with_default_names So, the two questions are: 1. Why doesn't upgrade deactivate m4 1.4.4_0 first? 2. Why does uninstall say that m4 1.4.8b_1 is not registered as installed while "port installed m4" says it is installed? -- Vincent Lefèvre <vincent@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)

The full spec for that installation is @1.4.8b_1+with_default_names. Try using that in the uninstall. -- Kevin Ballard http://kevin.sb.org eridius@macports.org http://www.tildesoft.com

Hmm... yes. It would be nive to accept @1.4.8b_1 too when there's no ambiguity. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vincent@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
