What is the use of specifying the 'r' switch when using the 'a' switch? # portupgrade -ar This says to upgrade all ports plus the ones that depend on all those ports. Am I missing something? Wouldn't "the ones that depend" be upgraded anyway? I understand the reasoning behind using the 'R' switch with 'a' since there may be new ports that are not installed that are required by upgradeable ports. __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca
