why is there an update, would be a little bit better
My point was why do you need the update, and can't wait until its been better vetted. The porters do the best they can but can't test everything.
but a real good question would be, why is there a not working/compiling update released to the ports tree
Because it was just released and every combination of system configuration hasn't been tested, so there is some lag time before it stabilizes, especially with complicated software.
There in lies the question -- why do you need to compile a port which was just released? Is it a security thing or is it "I want the latest" ? I'm just curious (and totally uninterested in how this ranks in your "worse question" list).
