However, because this was too painful (particularly as portmaster can't chop out a failing dependency subtree and continue with the working ports), I've spent some time yesterday to analyze the problem and proposed a patch to address this problem, and to address the parallel build: Dirk (dinoex@) has committed a more efficient alternative, so even users who have some old 10.2?.* version installed can now build 10.35.80_3 without deinstalling the old version first. (We haven't bumped the PORTREVISION as the installed files do not change.) There is also a patch pending that re-enables MAKE_JOBS_SAFE for the benefit of those with multi-core computers (like I am).
