Do you mean -d prints something that should also be printed by -v, but

An example would be helpful.


I wish I could give you an example, let me try to explain:
sudo port -v install
password: ******

Thats it, that is all I get, it just sits there, nothing, a blank line in the shell, fully stalled. Next time, I will run `lsof` and `top` and see what is going on.

I can only recover from the above with a control-c

After that control-c, if I run the same command, -d instead, immediately, all the debug and info lines are sent to the screen.

Not a huge deal, if others saw it, I would look into it. I'm building out ports to three test machines, to make sure all is working, one is a mac mini intel, macbook intel, and a PPC G5, I want to cover all bases. I have seen it happen on two of those machines, the mini has not happened yet, but I do not always test on that machine.

The only non standard thing I am doing from a normal plain install, is I do have a file:/// reference in sources.conf, since I have local ports.

If you can think of any other tests I should look at other than `top` to see if cpu is being used in large amounts, or `lsof` to see what files may or may not be hooked into, let me know, I will add them to my list of things to try.

I just found out ports is tcl under the hood, making all issues like this much more approachable to me as far as looking into it. I assumed it would be a flavor of C under the hood. Pretty happy it is not, this allows me to possibly contribute back, once I get over this little learning hump.

Thanks for the help.
