Enough Is Enough

[Sergio de Almeida Lenzi]

I do not doubt the "power"  of portmaster and portupgrade, but....
in my system (I have a "master" 4core,8Gb  and several "slaves" about 40
of them , that upgrade via portmaster -P -aBdg)
in the master system there are about 1200 packages installed...
so a portmaster -r png will last forever...

I made a  shell script that tests for the existance of the library
in /usr/local/lib/*.so, /usr/local/bin/*
sort it and tells me what ports really need upgrade...

with about 1200 ports, only 120 needed upgrade... (a question of 2
hours) in the "master cpu",
or about 20 minutes in the "slaves"  

this scripts outputs the commands needed to fix the system

watch out
