Hi folks, is there currently a mechanism in ports to ask a port what it will do if installed? I've been pondering a small set of build scripts that would allow one to build a package on a remote non-identical machine and started writing them, and hit a brick wall with trying to track what libraries will be impacted. It's easy enough building packages if the machines are identical, but once they're not then there are a whole host of small libraries issues that can appear. Best James
