Hi Kevin,

The sysinstall dependency problem  has existed for 10 years, so I doubt that
its unique to me.  It has occurred in every installation I have ever done.

I use portupgrade for all ports.

i strongly disagree with using ports for huge packages.  I don't have the
time to waste compiling.  Plus, you are presented with numerous nag screens
so you have to babysit the whole process.

You can get rid of the nag screens by putting "BATCH=yes" into /etc/make.conf. (Not that this negates your other points.)
