The second design problem SB> is that the -R option, which is supposed to avoid rebuilding ports SB> that have already been successfully rebuilt, nevertheless rebuilds SB> the specified dependency port--in this case, SB> perl-threaded-5.10.0_3--*every single time* without checking to see SB> whether it was already successfully built. This is terribly SB> time-consuming and wasteful. One might argue that the command says SB> to rebuild the port specified, but there really needs to be some SB> way to tell it not to do so. Back to the problems with the SB> builds...a half dozen or more port rebuild failures were SB> correctable by simply entering the failed port's directory, doing a SB> "make deinstall && make reinstall", and then returning to restart SB> (again) portmaster, which then, of course, began by rebuilding perl SB> another time (sigh). Full testing of the perl upgrade should have SB> made this process unnecessary, it seems to me. Eventually, though, SB> I encountered a problem with a port called SB> misc/gnome-icon-theme-2.26.0_1. (I do not use and haven't SB> knowingly installed gnome, so I really don't know why this port was SB> installed in the first place.
