It is also a very good way to get an exact idea of what ports are
being installed. You can then see that port x has been installed 400
times, 390 of those with no issues, 10 of those with some issue.
I proposed this two years ago but was shot down because this was
considered an invasion of privacy and people didn't want MacPorts
"phoning home". I had wanted to have a nice status display on the
MacPorts homepage showing which ports were the most popular, for
example. I see their point, but I'm glad to re-open the topic if
attitudes have changed.
Check out the CPAN::Reporter perl module. It's essentially an opt-in to
just this sort of thing for Perl modules; if you install it, suddenly
your build results are sent in.
