hihi. I was wondering what sort of problems the following change to
portupgrade was solving:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

FreeBSD ports repository
Modified files:
ports-mgmt/portupgrade Makefile
ports-mgmt/portupgrade/files patch-bin-portupgrade
Log:
- Remove code that gather not installed depends. It makes more problems
than solves.

Revision Changes Path
1.249 +1 -1 ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade/Makefile
1.13 +13 -3 ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade/files/patch-bin-portupgrade
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems to break ALT_PKGDEP processing during a portupgrade run
because alt_dep happens in get_notinstalled_depends.
For example, in my tests, if I have an alt-dep set for a package and I
install a port that depends on that package it'll still install the
original package rather than my alt-dep.
If I revert the change that happened in 2.4.3_2,2 the alt-dep stuff
works out. I'm worried that I'm opening up a can of worms because I
don't understand what problems were trying to be solved in that
version. Any ideas? Or does it sound like I'm misunderstanding
ALT_PKGDEP?
Thanks!
