WARNING: The sole reason why I'm adding this port is to allow me upgrade
gnomeutils port to the latest version. For some very strange reason
this new version requires libext2fs to build. The only thing I know
for sure about e2fsprogs is that it compiles cleanly on 4-STABLE and
5-CURRENT systems - I have not tested it in action. Please use it
with extremal precaution, because due to its low-level nature and
Linux roots it can do Very Bad Things[tm] to your data, set fire
on your house, kill your cat or something else even more horrible. If
someone wants to take over maintainership please feel free to do so.
-B CMD
--beforebuild CMD Run the sapecified command before each build. If the
command exits in failure, the port/package will be
skipped. Here is some typical uses:
portupgrade -B 'cvs update' 'gnome*'
portupgrade -aB 'test ! `make -V IS_INTERACTIVE`'
-x GLOB
--exclude GLOB Exclude packages matching the specified glob pattern.
Exclusion is performed after recursing dependency in
response to -r and/or -R, which means, for example,
the following command will upgrade all the packages
depending on XFree86 but leave XFree86 as it is:
portupgrade -rx XFree86 XFree86
portupgrade:
Add a new option: -N/--new. If it is specified, portupgrade
installs a new one when a specified package is not installed.
portinstall:
New command equivalent to `portupgrade -N'. You can specify a port
origin to name the one you want to install, too:
e.g. `portinstall shells/zsh'
LSOF now *requires* a populated /usr/src if building on a machine using
devfs (ie, 5-CURRENT). There is no other currently existing way for it
to get the information it needs.
This is a maintenance release.
- Manpages provided.
- Ports DB got faster.
- Wording fixed.
- New feature added to portsdb(1): you can use it to expand
port/pkgname globs. (archivers/p5-*, zsh, gnome*, etc.)
