Using cvsup, after having issued "make update", it takes a long time to recompile the OS sources and kernel by means of make buildworld make kernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL and then.. mergemaster -p make installworld etc... If I frequently update the OS and ports this procedure becomes time-consuming indeed. Is there any way to know in advance if it is necessary to comply with the described procedure or if it can be skipped because there weren't changes between two close updating? Ciao Vittorio
