You may have read my recent message about portmanager wrt packages, if so I'm sure you'll be able to guess my feature request: can portmaster be made to reproduce 'portupgrade -aPP'? A shell script that means I don't need ruby installed (ideally, I don't even want the ports tree to be required, just /usr/ports/packages/All) on a minimal host sounds like just the thing I need. regards, joel -- Joel Hatton -- Infrastructure Manager | Hotline: +61 7 3365 4417 AusCERT - Australia's national CERT | Fax: +61 7 3365 7031 The University of Queensland | WWW: www.auscert.org.au Qld 4072 Australia | Email: auscert@auscert.org.au
