maybe i'll hold off for a little while. it's such a pain having to wait for everything to build from source. kde takes forever, so you leave the house but when you come back there is one of those configuration options screens for some obscure package with bunch of options like "Enable Lib GSSD Compatibility" that mean absolutely nothing to me. meanwhile i can't use my PC.


You can usually avoid that with make -DBATCH=yes.  With portupgrade it
would be portupgrade -m -DBATCH=yes.

Usually, that will, if there are options, choose the defaults, which are
reasonable. You can put BATCH=yes in /etc/make.conf (see
/etc/defaults/make.conf) but of course, what happens then is that you
install something where you ~really~ didn't want the defaults. :)

okay that's great advice, thanks.
