And it is not > changing, since Bento builds packages anew from scratch. I'm talking about when libB.so's major version is bumped. There is already a package built on bento which depends on old version of libB.so., and it's already used by many users. And now libB.so's version is bumped, there's another package built on *bento* which depends on new libB.so, but that package has exactly same version-revision with previous one. A user can't tell if his package is latest or not by looking at the package version. -- Tadayuki OKADA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
