What is the use of specifying the 'r' switch when using the 'a' switch? # portupgrade -ar Since all installed ports are targeted wouldn't installed ports that depend on another installed port be upgraded anyway (if necessary)? I understand the reasoning behind using the 'R' switch with 'a' since there may be new ports that are not installed that are required by installed ports. __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca
