Sending a HEADS UP message to the maintainer if you are aware of an issue would be a good courtesy and hopefully minimize any breakage. A short delay for a maintainer to address the issue is reasonable, but that is a slippery slope. I say give a reasonable amount of time for the breakage to be addressed (where the definition of reasonable is open to interpretation). If it isn't addressed, please move forward and commit. robert. > Also, to anyone who hasn't updated their xcb-util port yet, here's what > I did to prevent tools like portmaster from installing the newer > version: >=20 > # touch /var/db/pkg/xcb-util-0.3.3/+IGNOREME >=20 > Now in portmaster, I get the following message when using -a to update > all my ports: >=20 > =3D=3D=3D>>> Launching child to update xcb-util-0.3.3 to xcb-util-0.3.4 >=20 > =3D=3D=3D>>> xcb-util-0.3.3 has an +IGNOREME file >=20 > =3D=3D=3D>>> Update anyway?
