That is what generally takes a lot of time after uninstalls. Ideally we would only vacuum when the amount of wasted space reaches a certain significant level, but that would not make it any quicker when it does happen, probably the opposite in fact. Not sure if we could add a progress indicator either. - Josh _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
