A port now lists all ports that require it. This code will eventually move to production after it's been running on on the beta site for a while. Notes: * The code uses the output of make -V RUN_DEPENDS -V LIB_DEPENDS -V BUILD_DEPENDS * Only the default build is queried * This is not recursive. For example, at http://beta.freshports.org/graphics/png/ You will find: Required by: for Build graphics/iiview graphics/optar graphics/tumbler for Libraries astro/astrometry astro/celestia astro/celestia-gnome [long list snipped] More information: * The original request: http://www.freshports.org/phorum/read.php?f=1&i=1280&t=1280 * Some background on the work: http://news.freshports.org/2011/02/05/what-ports-are-dependant-upon-this-port/ or http://tinyurl.com/6fezxpq -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/
