Subject:   portupgrade insists on tty output
Message-ID:  <5.1.0.14.2.20020320175430.00aa0e08@vivaldi.pn.sinp.msu.ru>

Tried to run portupgrade in batch mode as follows:

# file ports-remake
#!/bin/sh
portupgrade -a > ports-update.log 2>&1


Attempmt
/~# ./ports-remake &

ends with
/~#
[1]  + Suspended (tty output)        ./ports-remake
and empty log file.

Bringing the job to foreground with fg produces NO output
on the screen, and calmly proceeds with portupgrade.

What does portupgrade want to say to tty?
How I can run it in batch mode?
It seems essential for remote administration, as
abrupt break of connnection could lead to heavy damage of
ports and packages databases. Yes?

Thank you ahead of time for any idea.
Sergei
