Hello, I'm asking about the goal of the new option -L of pkgdb : -L --fix-lost Check and restore lost dependencies against the ports tree. What is a lost dependency ? # pkgdb -L Look for lost dependencies: ImageMagick-6.3.2.0: found print/ghostscript-afpl -> Fixed. ORBit2-2.14.6: ok [...] But i use ghostscript-gnu-7.07_15 So : # pkgdb -F ---> Checking the package registry database Stale dependency: ImageMagick-6.3.2.0 -> ghostscript-afpl-8.54,1 (print/ghostscript-afpl): ghostscript-gnu-7.07_15 (score:70%) ? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [a] And then i've got the same lost dependency again. I do not understand the goal and the utility of this option -L, a sample ? Thanks, regards.
