If you later delete one of the REQUIRED_BY packages, it won't be able to deregister its dependency on the updated package. Example: I upgraded QT from 2.2.1 to 2.2.1_1. Now, if I delete qhacc package, it will try to unregister its dependency on qt-2.2.1 whereas that does not exist anymore. It should unregister itself from 2.2.1_1. The package-file building dependencies are taken from the ports tree itself, not the installed packages' registered dependencies. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Vivek Khera, Ph.D. Khera Communications, Inc.
