I personal don't trust it. I'm not familiar with portmanager or portmaster. I use portupgrade and the standard pkg-* and ports' "make foo" utilities but I don't think that this is a proper way to talk about a tool that someone has made to make life easier maybe not for me and not for you, but evidently for many other FreeBSD users. If your comment would contain a lot of technical complaints and perhaps fixes, then it would be relevant, but right now it's just drivel. If someone would talk in such a way about kbtv without providing any substance or improvements I would be very angry and rightfully so. So I feel I have to support the author/maintainer of portmanager here. Dan
