I've successfully updated png/tiff/jpeg and some gnome packages (core/libs, but not from 1.0.x to 1.2.x) this way. 100% is to much, but even 10% is to much for "make update".

If I update foo-1.1 to foo-1.2 by just doing a make install, I now have both foo-1.1 and foo-1.2 listed in /var/db/pkg And if I remove foo-1.1 first, it will complain that bar-2.3 requires foo. If I remove foo-1.1 after installing foo-1.2, /usr/bin/foo will be removed, I fear. Or will the MD5 values in +CONTENT check, that only files belonging to foo-1.1 be removed? That can't be, because some files might be the same in both packages. The steps needed for upgrading a package (from ports) would be: make install append foo-1.1/+REQUIRED_BY to foo-1.2/+REQUIRED_BY traverse /var/db/pkg/* and remove foo-1.1/replace with foo-1.2 "subtract" foo-1.2/+CONTENT from foo-1.1/+CONTENT, only removing files needed only in foo-1.1 remove /var/db/pkg/foo-1.1 Does this look sane?

Maybe that should have been a default; certainly I always run it that way. But in the case that a program was going to postprocess the output, I didn't want it to have to wade through a bunch of pretty-printing stuff to get the results it needed. 2. When I was writing pkg_version, speed wasn't exactly a big priority to me, since pretty much *anything* was faster than what I was doing. Bruce. PS. I've been really bad about ignoring suggestions for pkg_version, mostly because it does everything I need/want it to do right now.
