Well, this is a good question. Unfortunately, I did an update of the

The question "why" isn't applicable here. Sometimes ports need updates
or a port that is installed reels in another or even an update and this
triggers the avalnche of messes.


Fair enough, I just feel like people reporting "48 hours of not using their computer" are doing something extraordinarily weird and I'm just at a loss as to what they're doing and why.

I get the feeling people are updating their ports tree and then recompiling/reinstalling everything "just because" and then are complaining when one thing breaks (its the only thing I can think of).
