seriously, this is why i want that debian+freebsd that was
discussed recently. the kernel is ours and number one in the

Hello all,
I'm going through a round of port upgrades and came upon a dependency issue.
I could probably muscle through and make it work, but I'd like to know
what people see as a "correct" solution to this problem. I'm still in
the process of grokking the nitty-gritty bits of ports.

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out port dependencies on my (freshly installed)

Yes, OpenLDAP 2.3 conflicts with 2.2, but jabberd by default assumes 2.2
so the build fails. Then rather than

Hi:
Some ports exists in multiple versions such as OpenLDAP, the most recent
and recommended is 2.3, but some other ports depends on another version
for example jabberd that requires 2.2. Some ports will let you choose
which version to compile against but jabberd don't.

I installed Apache mod_security on my Apache 2 httpd. Since this
my ports dependencies are off. It appears mod_security is only for
Apache 1.3x according to "make depends" How do I solve the ports
problem or where do I find mod_security for Apache 2. Thanks

Hi,
Is there a simple way to display a list of all installed packages
that depend on another given installed package?
i.e. say I would like to know every installed package that depends
on gmake which I also have installed. Is there any quick way to
display this?

Quick question:
I'm getting interested in using portupgrade -FR to prefetch a port's source
and its dependencies (and maybe even run the fetching in a 2nd session while
other parts are compiling). But I can only get it to work on stuff that is
already installed. It works great then.
