if I add the
-P
option to portmaster
, and postmaster decides to re-install pkg
, I get the following:
Code:
Installed packages to be REMOVED:
pkg: 1.13.2
Number of packages to be removed: 1
The operation will free 13 MiB.
[1/1] Deinstalling pkg-1.13.2...
You may need to manually remove /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf if it is no longer needed.

It appears portmaster deletes
pkg
, then tries to reinstall it via packages (-P) which fails without pkg
.I'm updating a bunch of ports (not
pkg
explicitly) and really don't want to build them ALL from ports (but rather packages where available). Is there a way to stop portmaster
deinstalling pkg
?And a couple of follow-up questions:
portmaster seems to love re-installing ports when it's not necessary (eg: when updating
perl
you upgrade it by itself first, then when you upgrade the perl modules it re-installs perl
). Is there a way to prevent this?is updating ports harder these days? (ok, this is just a minor rant).
Thanks
