For daily ports changes (changes to individual ports) freshports is indeed indispensible and deserves our support. In fact, I see that one of the other BSDs has a monthtly summary of "all ports that changed" and frankly it's too much information to sift through -- freshports really "feels" better for this purpose. What I'm talking about is any changes made that will affect multiple ports -- sometimes, like the changes Joe just posted w/rt bsd.gnome.mk; sometimes, like "changes to the sdl2 port have just been made, which affects N ports". (Possibly even "changes to the sdl2 port are not allowed right now because it would affect N ports, sigh.) Really, there are only 1 or 2 a month that fit my rough idea of what is relevant to a wider audience. Perhaps this makes it clearer what I was trying to say. mclReceived on Tue Jan 13 2004 - 10:48:22 UTC
