That includes changes > that only affect a package built with *non-default options*. Is that true? It's open for interpretation, and I've never interpreted it that way. I've seen other use the same rationale (doesn't affect packages with default options) as a reason not to bump. If all things are perfect, I agree with you, but people get pretty upset when a port rebuilds for a weak reason. Making something huge rebuild to help out people that customize the port might be "weak" in that sense. In any case, the above interpretation is news for me. John
