Hi there.
I see some massive port update in past hours, but not see what the
reason of it (nor on freebsd-ports@, nor on freshports.org).  Can
anybody shed the light what was changed?

The graphics/jpeg port was updated such that the version number of
libjpeg.so was increased.  This necessitated a revision bump in all the
ports that depend on graphics/jpeg.  There are *many* such ports.




Thanks.

I could have swore that I recently heard an announcement that barred this type of activity until after 7.3-RELEASE was made....

Guess that doesn't stand for everything.

Stick to package if you can't handle it.

Was there some type of security concern that caused this bump of jpeg in the first place or was it just a creeping featurism?
