Hi Doug, Recently in upgrading x11-wm/xmonad and x11-wm/xmonad-contrib I had noticed that when portmaster asks to delete a distfile, when it asks about xmonad-0.9.1 it was also asking to delete the xmonad-contrib-0.9.1 before it had even upgraded xmonad-contrib. Is this a problem on portmasters behalf or is this on ports structure side ?. What do you or anyone else think about each port possibly keeping obsolete-distfiles list one much like distinfo but a concatenated list of previous distinfo's that had once been used allowing a ( make distclean ) or something routine to be built into the ports infrastructure to parse that file in each port ? -- jhell
