  • Ticket #8763 – Description

    initial v4  
    11After going through a few upgrades via "port -a upgrade" I noticed that the upgrades only deactivated older versions of packages.  After uninstalling the inactive ports manually (I needed to use -f since inactive ports can still have dependents) I noticed that their entries in the "dependency list" are not removed.  For example:
    22
     3{{{
    34~ $ sudo port installed | grep apr
    45  apr @1.2.6_0 (active)
    56  apr-util @1.2.6_0 (active)
    67-= rom@leviathan =- Sun May 07, 02:00 AM
    7 ~ $
     8~ $
     9}}}
    810
    911then,
    1012
     13{{{
    1114-= rom@leviathan =- Sun May 07, 02:00 AM
    1215~ $ sudo port uninstall apr
     
    2124-= rom@leviathan =- Sun May 07, 02:16 AM
    2225~ $
     26}}}
    2327
    2428Notice that apr-util appears three times but in the former command only one apr-util package is shown to be installed (apr-util @1.2.6_0).  These "residual" packages are from previous inactive versions (because of upgrades) that were manually uninstalled.
