Why? That a port installs shared libraries is known. That the major version=
 of=20
the library changed is known too (if only from comparing the pkg-plist befo=
re=20
and after the commit). Why can't the package-building infrastructure put th=
e=20
two-and-two together and figure out, that the dependent ports need=20
rebuilding /without/ explicit PORTREVISION bump?
