I typically do an ``openpkg build -Ua > /tmp/build.update'' to
create the initial update file, looking at it to see if there's
anything obvious that I need to deal with.  After that, I then
execute the script, redirecting output to a file through ``tee''
which will allow me to look at the output in case of problems:

sh /tmp/build.update 2>&1 | tee /tmp/build.update_log_01

If the update fails for some reason, I'll normally try to address that
issue (say moving the autoconf lines above automake if automake says it
needs a more current version of autoconf), comment out everthing that's
already built successfully, the rerun the build from that point on, usually
increasing the log_0n number so I have a record of the changes made.
