Hi,
I have a port (www/ump) that depends on another port (audio/timidity++).
Whenever there is a new version of timidity++ ump needs to be rebuilt.
I had been using PORTREVISION to do this---whenever there is a new
version of timidity++, I bump the PORTREVISION of ump, which I found
quite stupid.
I am thinking if it is a good idea to concatenate the version numbers
of both ports to form the PORTVERSION. For example, the current version
of ump is 1.10, and the current version of timidity++ is 2.13.2, can I
make the PORTVERSION of ump 1.10.2.13.2? What do you think?
