Good evening,
I am looking at the "downward recursive" option of
portupgrade. Does this option (-R) only include the
immediate dependencies of the port in question or is
it truly recursive in the sense that it will upgrade
dependencies of dependencies as well?
Secondly, I see that the features of portupgrade for
upward and downward recursiveness use opposite
lettering to that of pkg_info:
portupgrade -R is like pkg_info -r
portupgrade -r is like pkg_info -R
Example:
# portupgrade -Rn bash
---> Listing the results (+:done / -:ignored /
*:skipped / !:failed)
- converters/libiconv (libiconv-1.9.2_2)
- devel/gettext (gettext-0.14.5_2)
- shells/bash (bash-3.1.10)
# pkg_info -rx bash
Dependency: libiconv-1.9.2_2
Dependency: gettext-0.14.5_2
This seems pretty silly. Am I missing something?
