Hi,
A lot of people always forget to read UPDATING (that's normal we'll are
humans).
Each entry in UPDATING is like "AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/flowd" so if
an update of net-mgmt/flowd is available and a *recent* entry in
UPDATING talks about then print the message.
This can prevent a lot
not directly required as
dependency. And those are actually the cases when everything breaks
horribly in the end - I guess for obvious reasons.
It wouldn't be that hard to reqire all entries in updating to be in a
specific and meaningful format, i.e.
DATE=20101225
PORT=x11/gnome2
VERSION=2.32.

Just be prepared for infrastructural changes, for which working out a specific
AFFECTS line would take longer than the patch i

Repeating 370 lines of mail to just ask add 2 lines asking for more
input is wasting everyone's time (to skip over it if nothing else) as
well as archive space
