Use something like ``-afrRPv''. Force upgrade of all ports, their dependants and dependencies (recursively), build a package of the the newly compiled port, and do it verbosely. Or just use ``-arRPv'' if you do not want to rebuild or reinstall current ports (while still building packages). -Michael S. Eubanks mse_software@charter.net
