#651: cvs up in dports makes port uninstall fail if version has changed -------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: jcorley1@… | Owner: landonf@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.0 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: | -------------------------+----------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * component: ports => base Old description:

I installed subversion when it was at version 0.23.0. I ran cvs up in my dports tree (/opt/darwinports/dports) and noticed it was upgraded to version 0.24.2. When I tried to uninstall it, all I get is this:

% % port uninstall -d -v subversion +mod_dav_svn DEBUG: com.apple.package registered provides 'package', a pre-existing procedure. Target override will not be provided DEBUG: Executing mod_dav_svn provides mod_dav_svn DEBUG: Skipping completed com.apple.main (subversion) DEBUG: Executing com.apple.uninstall (subversion) Error: Target com.apple.uninstall returned: Uninstall failed: Port not registered as installed Warning: the following items did not execute (for subversion): com.apple.uninstall %

Problem being, as I understand it, that port is looking to remove version 0.24.2 instead of the 0.23.0 that I have installed. I have been told that I should have removed the port first, then run cvs update, then port install. However, how would I know to update the port if I don't run cvs up first?
