My mistake. I'd always assumed that in "-t --clean-distfiles" the "-t" had its usual meaning of recurse through port dependencies. What makes that particularly confusing is that recursing to handle missing dependencies would be a useful option. I'd still recommend distviper over portmaster because it's faster. _______________________________________________ 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"
