Can you have multiple -o options in combination with -a ? Just ran a quick test and have 2 points : 1) portmaster -b -n -a ... ===>>> The devel/gnu-libtool port has been deleted: Has expired: devel/libtool15 is now stock and should be used instead ===>>> Aborting update I think the -n should not abort. (interesting to see gnu-libtool show up again, I've done the 'libtool changes' so remove all ports and reinstall recently. I seem to have : gnu-libtool-1.5.20 and libtool-1.5.22_2) 2) Maybe it is nice to state to what version a port will upgrade ? So instead of : ===>>> Launching child to update screen-4.0.2_3 something like : ===>>> Update screen-4.0.2_3 to 4.0.2_4 regards, Hans Lambermont
