simple question on portupgrade
Good evening, I am looking at the "downward recursive" option of portupgrade. Does this option (-R) only include the immediate dependencies of the port in question or is it truly recursive in the sense that it will upgrade dependencies of dependencies as well? Secondly, I see that the features of portupgrade for upward and downward recursiveness use opposite lettering to that of pkg_info: portupgrade -R is like pkg_info -r portupgrade -r is like pkg_info -R Example: # portupgrade -Rn bash ---> Listing the results (+:done / -:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) - converters/libiconv (libiconv-1.9.2_2) - devel/gettext (gettext-0.14.5_2) - shells/bash (bash-3.1.10) # pkg_info -rx bash Dependency: libiconv-1.9.2_2 Dependency: gettext-0.14.5_2 This seems pretty silly.
