I also need to quickly look up origin -> pkgname and would suggest placing this in the INDEX file. Then you have the foundation in place to be able to run 'make vim-7.1.2.tbz' in, say, /usr/ports/ and it will first create gettext-x.y.tbz and stuff. Ie, it could resolve/build dependencies *before* even starting the build in editors/vim. This then quickly leads to parallel pkg builds working (think: make -j3 vim-7.x.y.tbz) Ulrich Spoerlein -- "The trouble with the dictionary is you have to know how the word is spelled before you can look it up to see how it is spelled." -- Will Cuppy _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
