libmysqlclient.so (why is that useful?)
=======================================
cd /usr/local/lib/mysql/
rm libmysqlclient.so
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/freebsd4.8/libmysqlclient.so
mysql
=====
cd /usr/local
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/freebsd4.8/mysql-standard-NEWVERSION.tar.gz
tar -zxpvf mysql-standard-NEWVERSION.tar.gz
rm mysql
ln -s mysql-standard-NEWVERSION/ mysql

All other programs should be updated using portupgrade
A list can be seen running CVS, then
cd /usr/ports
make fetchindex
portversion -l \<
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So... what do you think about that?
Some of those I haven't tried... this isn't supposed to be a tutorial, but a question, because I may be wrong on many of those.
I'd like to know if anyone could give suggestion, point mistakes and maybe we'd finally have a definitive document on how to upgrade DirectAdmin on FreeBSD. Maybe then this could be posted on help.directadmin.com
And now a suggestion: It seens many programs are updated in different ways (some are pkg, others are uncompressed, others are binary...). It would be nice if this got standarlized (maybe all as packages or, possibly, a updates/ directory on /usr/local/directadmin that would have scripts to update them)
thanks
