FWIW: a) Portmaster creates backup packages of currently installed versions, to allow rollback indeed. b) Portmaster can build new packages of the new versions, e.g. for a local repository. c) Note that both use "pkg create" or "pkg_create", not "make package". Out of the box, Portmaster does (a) and not (b), but this can easily be changed through commandline options and/or a configuration file. There- fore, I'd recommend simply changing the default setting of (a) from on to off instead of removing feature (a) altogether. AvW --=20 I'm not completely useless, I can be used as a bad example. --T4sUOijqQbZv57TR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWMKvqAAoJEAfP7gJTaCe8cB4P+wXGDxnXUV4r9bO9B7tkwSjY hzLocKPHEvmqEhxn/ETpztxUXhfD6IQR2CLUxON4zBmyl5kdLQR+xHPzQtZXA7NZ IxayaCpXxGjzb9VF6/He1d0jXZPF70cAVDQkfsM2khUC+Ke7JAQ87Gy1IbRDaDUi U4xQ2LJ+2pf/7P0qvyevr2HoSUn3Z980Yv03DnnHso+1lyQ5X3dWIzu6DbmPyqvs zwhYInV9bBJmS5UID+XwJaoQL7bz8tdzT8N6vpuT2v8REsTez7CcmK7szUAyGqMH mgdjp84QKJcbOa6FGCyKQlNiOEBX0z3VglmfzdSjlC1fJ9qPGQCURzFa/vE/ngEh CknJEddM2YCRJYv4LhUCaxWcJMRlj78uCLmkzVQAK8KimdKK5xQXDQrZXoAVsKJN taunifKHyhgSv4YjbMex6tlC/0Du8UQs6d3GsfK+34luSSvwQQAJtvcFygrPBCwc A1nSBzRIHo7Vz7Q0rqkSxBFXIvL59MGqg23BYVQ1/yzGRPxjA/SlRxVe3e9D4KJZ dccr5XhHPI9S1xNwh7wpCZmobVDBgoenXETIzt/SvmFClh2XhCBkVz9dZhW6r2GV We65rZX9CD/jQrP6omDIMh7rIQmxBnVIF9lpY+rTEFIjfIQFFkGjD55xjqrTBkQe Q/ig9DKkpqge55FT8jsw =ZOdP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --T4sUOijqQbZv57TR--
