I've never been able to complete a poudriere run on my build machine without panicking because I have "only" four gigabytes of memory. (It is likely the machine will get more memory for Christmas, though.) I haven't yet had occasion to try synth. I love portmaster. My build machine is not a production machine, so if the build process goes astray, I can at worst delete all ports and rebuild them all. And portmaster will request all options at the beginning of the run and then quietly build away until it finishes (or breaks). The worst thing about ports for me is really an NP problem: FreeBSD can't possibly test all the option combinations. So I expect to have to do some fine tuning on my own. -- George _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
