--- Comment #7 from Be=C3=B1at Gonzalez Etxepare <bbtruk@users.sourceforge.=
net> ---
Because each revision in the ports tree works as a single unit. Things may
change in a port between revisions, and every other port which has a depend=
ency
on it has to be aware of this change.

As an example, you can see that lazarus port recently changed its install
location from /usr/local/share/lazarus/ (until v1.2) to
/usr/local/share/lazarus-{VERSION}/ (starting from v1.2.4).

Now, imagine you have lazarus v1.2 installed and try to update doublecmd po=
rt
(to v0.5.10_1) without updating lazarus port first. Doublecmd port would be
unable to find your lazarus installation directory (it would search in
/usr/local/share/lazarus-{VERSION}/ instead of /usr/local/share/lazarus/) a=
nd
the build process would fail.

This is the reason why updating a single port without its dependencies is a=
 bad
idea.
