Agreed, but for some ports it gets more difficult. I'd like to stop and start services by portupgrade. For instance MySQL server upgrades, I didn't try these yet, but what about : BEFOREBUILD = { 'databases/mysql*-server' => '/usr/local/bin/mysqldump --all-databases > /var/spool/all_databases.sql', 'databases/mysql*' => '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh stop', } MAKE_ARGS = { 'databases/mysql*-server' => 'SKIP_INSTALL_DB=yes', } AFTERINSTALL = { 'databases/mysql*' => '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh start', } Also, what would be the ideal backout method ? How do you keep around the package that portupgrade makes during an upgrade ? Btw, I'd like to see your modified pkgtools.conf files. Is there a place where these are discussed already ?
