Re: Error when using 'portupgrade -ay' (and several others) [Second attempt]

Re: portmaster -R (Was: Re: HEADS-UP: Shared Library Versions bumped...)
[If you follow up to this message please change freebsd-stable@ to freebsd-po...@. Thanks.] Ben Morrow wrote: Since my machine has spent the last 48hrs or so rebuilding everything that depended on jpeg-6b and python25 (it's a pretty old machine), I've been wondering if an option to say '*don't* rewrite the dependencies of other ports to refer to the new version' would be a good solution here. Normally this is a helpful thing to do, but when you're trying to reinstall a few ports low in the dependency chain and then rebuild everything that needs rebuilding it would be helpful to have the ones that haven't been rebuilt still depend on the old (now deleted) package, so they can be identified. That's an interesting idea, but with portmaster you can accomplish the same thing with the -r option. Just use the -R option on successive runs if the first one fails for some reason. -r (and -Rr) don't help here, since lots of large ports depend on *both* jpeg and python, and I was specifically trying to avoid rebuilding them all twice. This is a situation (ports relying on 2 dependencies that both require complete rebuilds) that is not easy to program for. Fortunately it also does not come up very often. AFAICT -r doesn't allow you to ask for two ports plus all combined dependants at once. I ended up taking the pkg_info -R list for both pkgs before the upgrade, sorting it into dependency order, and stripping entries off the front every time something failed and I had to restart, which is a little too manual for my taste :). (The list had to be sorted, otherwise port A might depend on port B that came later in the list, and when portmaster got to B in the list it would reinstall it again unnecessarily.) For future reference you would have been better off if you had done 'sort -u' on the list then done 'portmaster `cat list`'. Portmaster would then do all the dependency sorting for you, and it will only rebuild each port on the list once. hth, Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
