If I run portmaster with the -a switch it now attempts to rebuild all
installed ports rather than just those that need to be updated.

It doesn't do that for me. Are you sure that you didn't use the -f switch
as well? Or do you perhaps have FORCE=yes in /etc/portmaster.rc or
~/.portmasterrc?


No sign of FORCE (don't have either of those files) and I rarely need
-f.  I invoked it with -aiGd:

        etc.

If I remove -G it seems to "do the right thing."  Perhaps it's the
behavior of -G that's changed?

Strange, I have NO_RECURSIVE_CONFIG=yes (-G) in my /etc/portmaster.rc and I can't reproduce it.

% cat /etc/portmaster.rc
DONT_SCRUB_DISTFILES=yes
NO_RECURSIVE_CONFIG=yes
NO_BACKUP=yes

I have ran 'portmaster -a' recently and it went well. I have lsof installed too in here. Maybe it's -G combine with one of option that made different result? Or maybe just -i?

     -i  interactive update mode -- ask whether to rebuild ports

Cheers,
Mezz
