I have a few problems with port upgrade.

First, why does it uninstall ports. Isn't it supposed to just deactivate old ports ?

it uninstalls if you use -f

Second, things get a little weird (just the last lines of "port -f upgrade pango") :

Ports get uninstalled one by one, following dependencies, but everything jams on pkgconfig because category is getting stacked up somewhere.

Force with upgrade will force a rebuild of all of the port's dependencies, and it looks like you're having failures building pkgconfig. Basically, you probably don't want -f with upgrade. -- Daniel J.

Possible, but when everything just crash looking for libintl.3 after a gettext upgrade, is there any better way ?

we need to fix upgrade -Rf to be a little more sane (if you use it now, it ends up building things over and over again). -- Daniel J.
