I have a quick question about policy regarding version bumps for shared
libraries.  I have gotten in the habit of removing old versions of ports
before installing the new one, and found that suddenly a large number of
things stopped working with the libpng major was incremented.

Should PORTREVISION be incremented when modifying LIB_DEPENDS, so that all
dependant ports are rebuilt linked to the new library?

Alex.
