There is a lot more out-of-date (or jsut plain wrong) with that port. For example it can build obsolete copies of postgresql (and other htings) right over top of running newer ones.

About 4 hours on a K6-500 that is still hosting while this goes on. IOW, no, I don't drop to single-user mode to do it. That *does* require on-site hand-holding.
