Of course both of these scripts could be easily modified to meet local = needs.

If you are maintaining a high traffic site (for which = sa-compile would be useful) then you will probably be rolling your own = maintenance scripts anyway. But none of this is not a reason to not = include something like these in the SA port. Alternatively, if someone were sufficiently motived they could put = together an SA utilities port that installs a number of maintenance = scripts which a user can enable. > One other thing is that just I always use sa-update with > --gpghomedir.
