I just face many large ports requiring updates, although mine depend on openldap23-client, which have not been updated. Thus, I decided to investigate changing openldap23-client to openldap24-client. According to 'libchk -v', only 10 of 29 of my ports bumped actually link to one of the openldap libraries. (For example kdesdk3 does not link to it.) Do I miss something? Why have all these ports been bumped? devel/gconf2 did not get bumped, although it automatically picks up the dependency if openldap*-client is installed, which probably affects many people. Why? Because it does not affect the default package? If I update openldap23-client to openldap24-client, is it advisable to rebuild all packages depending on it (81) or just the 29 that got bumped plus gconf2? (According to UPDATING, it probably should be all. According to 'libchk -v', 10+1 should be enough.) Thanks, Jan Henrik
