Is there any way that portupgrade could be made "smart" enough to not upgrade the gnome ports? Since you have to download and run the upgrade script (and why isn't that part of the ports anyway?), it doesn't make a great deal of sense to run portupgrade and then run the gnome upgrade script, yet it's impossible to tell from portupgrade (when it's running) what are gnome dependencies and what are not. Seems like a lot of duplication of effort could be easily fixed by either downloading and calling the script (and exiting portupgrade?) or simply ignoring any "gnome" ports.
