I often use "make -DBATCH install" to install ports. Problem: many ports spew out a warning/todo message after you install them (eg, "you must manually create an x user" or something). Since ports install "recursively", I miss most of these messages. Can I tell ports to store these messages for me somewhere? Obviously, I can "make -DBATCH install > /tmp/outfile", but that'll log all the "install", "test", etc commands that I don't want to see: I just want to see the warnings at the end of each install. -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.
