I don't spend as much time following OpenBSD as I used to, so
perhaps I'm missing something. But there used to be a
ports-security mailing list used for announcing updated ports.
That list doesn't exist any more, or at least doesn't appear to
have had anything posted to it in a very long time.
It exists, but is inactive.
Is there some other official way to track changes to ports?
By looking at the output of `cvs up`? By watching commits via
[EMAIL PROTECTED] I do both, and find it sufficient.
Absent that, has anyone come up with a simple hack to feed to cron
to accomplish the same thing?
I pull updated ports and src daily via cron, and read
(ports|source)-changes@ for commit messages, etc. Does that not
achieve what you need?
This is not yet finished but already working:
http://www.markus-hennecke.de/downloads/list_updated_ports.pl
Just feed the script a cvs logfile from a ports update and it will print
each port that has a changed Makefile and a changed version number.
I am keeping track of current ports with this script.
There are still some things missing like reading more than one cvs log
in one pass and some command line switches.
