There are quite a lot of ports that print out informational messages that are related to build options that have no relevance to fetching the distfiles and I'd prefer if they weren't output at that point to make it easier to parse the output of running fetch across the whole of the ports tree. -- Paul Richards | FreeBSD Services Ltd | Order 4.6 on DVD now. http://www.freebsd-services.com | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
