Hi,
I'm trying to update gnome to 2.16 using portmaster for more than 3

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. Are you sure you're
using the latest version of portmaster (1.9)?
Yes.
Ok, good.
1. Every time after some error when I try to run portmaster -r
pkg-config\*
it starts from the beginning. Maybe there is some option to skip
updated ports. How to tell portmaster to skip updated ports?
By definition the -r flag means "update the ports that depend on this
port no matter what." Jeremy's suggestion of using the -i flag is a
good one though. You will only have to enter your choices (to build a
port or not) only one time, during the 'make config' stage.
ok, but how do I know whether particular port was updated or not, if I
didn't check before the port version?
If you're not sure, go ahead and let portmaster update it. Due to the
change from X11BASE to LOCALBASE this is a particularly important
upgrade.
3. While portmaster running, I manually updated libtheora port. When
portmaster reaches libtheora, it stops with error.
It's not really a good idea to do that, but it's impossible to advise
you without knowing what the error was.
When you make install certain port it complains to deinstall and
reinstall again. So this is the error I forgot to mention.
Well, you're probably better off in that situation to just let
portmaster handle the update.
hth,
Doug
