Hello, I'm upgrading a server from 6.4 to 7.1 and am going through the relative pain of re-compiling all the ports. It's not as easy "portupgrade -af" because of all the special handling instructions of many ports. I have not found an "easy" way to keep track of the ports that need to be forcibly updated but have not undergone a version change. Because I approach the upgrade in steps, I need to run portupgrade several times but want to exclude stuff already compiled under 7.x. What I need is a command like: # portupgrade -af -x "already compiled on 7" Suggestions, comments, rebukes welcome. -- Regards, Doug
