Hello Alexander, First, let me summarize what's you're saying. You admit that PORTREVISION bump is necessary. To upgrade ports, one should use portupgrade. # BTW, it's not 'portupdate'. It's an improvement because people can chose not to updadte shlibs. Do I understand you right? About PORTREVISION, Mikhail thinks otherwise.

About portupgrade, I think people should be able to handle ports with base system. But if you think otherwise, I won't argue about it. One thing I want to ask you is: Why optinal knob is no better than Mikhail's proposal? With the knob, people actually can chose to update shlib or not to. > What if this port only works with freetype library versions greater than > 4? Please check ports/graphic/gd/Makefile. I just added '.ifdef'. If you can accept his change, why not this?
