upgrade port, a couple of questions
Hi, How can I see which ports depend on libgmp-4.1.4_1? If I upgrade it, the applications that are using the old libgmp would be affected? Thanks... Efren Bravo. - Fight back spam!

Thanks... Efren Bravo. If you go into /var/db/pkg/libgmp-4.1.4_1 you'll see a file called +REQUIRED_BY. Read it (cat +REQUIRED_BY) to see which ports require libgmp. You usually do not have to rebuild those ports unless there was a major change in the library. It's up to you to know if you need to rebuild them or not.

This is a question i've had for a while, so this (+REQUIRED_BY) checks what depends on libgmp, how do you check what libgmp depends on?

Also I've found portmanager copes pretty well with most dependencies.
