Re: another problem ...

I asked Jonathan Chen what was the easiest way to do this. Was it CSup? Also how do I check for the latest version? The manual indicates pkg_version -v does this, but it does not list all ports and in particular not the ones I am interested in which are in /usr/ports/editors. Is there a way to get these? Does one get all the ports at one shot which might be useful as I don't know where I am going wrong. Or just the one?

You need to update your ports tree. The current version is 2.4.0_5.

Please consult the Handbook on how to keep your ports-tree up to date:
