That does not mean you don't have to recompile everything. It's just a fallback for users so their software don't stop working until they manage to recompile it. Think about this scenario: libfoo.1 -> libbar.0 -> bin/application libfoo.1 -> bin/application Now update libfoo without PORTREVISION bumpage: lib/compat/pkg/libfoo.1 -> libbar.0 -> bin/application lib/compat/pkg/libfoo.1 -> bin/application So far so good. Now libbar gets updated to new release: libfoo.2 -> libbar.0 -> bin/application lib/compat/pkg/libfoo.1 -> bin/application Houston, we got a problem. In this moment user may experience strange crashes or startup problems, because two conflicting copies of libfoo are being loaded into application by rtld. That's why we bump and recompile everything. --=20 Pav Lucistnik What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? --=-vYTL3XybIBDY5mTPYZpM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBC1+FhntdYP8FOsoIRAtgHAKCdvHBk+AJYrYEjudVhICtP7LGyugCffIoe EPNUU2liLhr29BUKEU5SxQc= =Z5bp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-vYTL3XybIBDY5mTPYZpM--
