Is there anyone else who thinks it would be nice to collect ui_msg and display the messages at the very end of the port run?

Awesome Idea. Maybe even summer of code material if it's complicated enough.


Or make it an option? Or is there a way to do this already?

Maybe even write them to a ui_message log along with a time stamp and the original port command.

So if you install something that has a bunch of dependencies, and especially if you use the -v or -d flags you can read all the messages at the end.

Removing and rebuilding things to test perl5.8 as an example:
port -f uninstall installed
port -k install mysql5-devel @5.1.30_1+partition+server apache2 php5 @5.2.8_1+apache2+imap+macosx+mysql5+pear+pspell+readline+sqlite+tidy perl5.8 @5.8.9_2+db+gdbm+shared+threads php5 @5.2.8_1+apache2+imap +macosx+mysql5+pear+pspell+readline+sqlite+tidyport -vk install mysql5-devel @5.1.30_1+partition+server apache2 php5 @5.2.8_1+apache2+imap+macosx+mysql5+pear+pspell+readline+sqlite+tidy perl5.8 @5.8.9_2+db+gdbm+shared+threads php5 @5.2.8_1+apache2+imap +macosx+mysql5+pear+pspell+readline+sqlite+tidy
---> normal output without us_msg ............

and at the end of the port run

--->. Message from port mysql5-devel
******************************************************
* In order to setup the database, you might want to run
* sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db5
* if this is a new install
******************************************************
---> Message from port foo
******************************************************
* foo suggests you do something
******************************************************
