It is designed as a complementary tool to portlint, therefore the advertisement. Portlint checks the style of the port before installing, portconflicts the packing list afterwards. First I though of making something like Bill Fenners portsurvey(TM), but I think it might be useful for new ports too. I can still send out email reminders, if this is A Good Thing. Where doe you think it would have its place in the Tools directory? To be honest, I use none of the nifty little snippets there.
