--8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable A number of ports run daemons, such as postfix, which are started in /usr/local/tc/rc.d. Portupgrade doesn't appear to know anything about these, and so it will quite happily attempt to upgrade a daemon that is still running. Idealally it ought to DTRT, which I guess is some combination of shutdow the existing port down, upgrade it and then restart it. There are some rudiments of knowledge about rc.d/ scripts built into the Mk subsystem so I wonder whether it's possible to hook into that in some way. Thoughts welcome.
