My approach is to do portmaster -w (or portupgrade equivalent) and then run libchk -v > libchk.out (-x /usr/X11R6 would also save some time if /usr/X11R6 is just a link to /usr/local). Then I pick all binaries and shared libraries that are linked to old libraries in compat/pkg and do pkg_which `cat oldlibs.list` | sort -u. After that I force-upgrade all the resulting packages. I do this only for major changes in shared libraries (the ones with UPDATING entry and recommendation to do portmaster -r or portupgrade equivalent). -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
