If MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes is already the default, then presumably trying to build or upgrade a port will fail just the same with this part specified?
Now "pkg info -r gio-fam-backend" shows
gio-fam-backend-2.34.3:
mplayer-1.1.r20130308
gstreamer-plugins-gl-0.10.3_1
vlc-2.0.6_3,3
So to go to the last step ("portmaster -a") in this UPDATING 20130731, I have to somehow upgrade or get rid of those three reverse dependencies, or possibly
pkg delete -f gio-fam-backend
I see in other posts that vlc has had a further update/commit, and I could switch from mplayer to mplayer2, but what about gstreamer-plugins-gl, or is this not critical?
