Forcing upgrade of port

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I am trying to upgrade phpMyAdmin to the latest release 2.6.1-pl2 which
has a few bugs fixed (One of them being critical for my usage).

I have updated the ports tree with cvsup but it has not picked up the
newer release (or maybe its not time to be updated in the ports tree..
not sure). So how do I go about updating my phpMyAdmin port to the
latest release ? Is it just a matter of editing the "MakeFile" under
"/usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin" with the proper release number before
"make install clean" ? Any suggestions welcome.

cheers,
Jeffery

I've never had any success with a phpmyadmin installation from ports. In
your place I'd uninstall your existing port, and go grab the
latest/greatest from [url]http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/index.php[/url].

There are a few apps I have gotten into the habit of getting directly,
this is one of 'em. Another is php, and finally MySQL. Since I'm on the
announce lists for all three, if another version comes along I can read
the release notes in some detail, rather than trusting blindly and
attempting to upgrade via ports...not that there's anything wrong with
ports I *hasten* to add!! Everyone has their "pet apps" they want to
know about in greater detail....those stated above are mine...YMMV of
course.

I know there are those with a liking for debate who will say; "well
surely that applies to every application, wouldn't you want to read the
detailed release notes/changelog for foo-9.x.x before installing it, I
mean why use the ports collection at all?" I'm not going down that road.
I'm just saying to you that there are likely many people who do the same
with their own "chosen apps" and nothing beyond that. Don't anyone take
this as being an invitation to emit/return a three month rambling series
of non-sequiturs on the ports collection which inevitably leads to light
switches and good environmental pracctices in pig farming.

As always, just my $0.02 worth.

Regards,
-Colin

Yikes. Give us a chance please. The pl2 release only happened last
night, and I've just submitted a PR to update the port. I'll attach
the diff from the PR (against the current ports tree) which you can
apply yourself if you're desperate for the new version before it all
gets processed.

Cheers,

Matthew

Speaking as the maintainer of the phpmyadmin port, what exactly is the
problem you have been experiencing when installing phpmyadmin from
ports? I can't say that I remember ever seeing a bug report from you
-- and as far as I can tell from the testing I and the ports
committers do, the port is working as it should. If you have
discovered a problem, please do report it, as there's no way I can fix
things if I don't know they're broken.

Cheers,

Matthew

D'Oh! How to make yourself look like a complete wally in one easy
step. Please remove the Makefile~ emacs backup file that managed to
sneak into that diff.

Sorry mate... I was having problem with logging into phpmyadmin when I
was using cookie authentication. Just Found out through a bug reported
at sourceforge that the blowfish pass-phrase has to be less than 50
characters or so. All fixed on my end now.. sorry for the confusion.

cheers,
Jeffery
