Hi Martin Thank you for your answer (and everyone else who replied). This is exactly the reason why I keep going back to portupgrade. Default OPTIONS almost always work for me - if not I go to the ports directory and run make config then let the --batch option of portinstall deal with everything. It would be extremely nice if there would be a --batch option that would act like portupgrade.

Unfortunately not. I tried: $ BATCH=yes portmaster -a -d --no-confirm and like someone else suggested adding BATCH?=yes to /etc/make.conf, then running: $ portmaster -a -d --no-confirm Still asks me to confirm all the options.

If you absolutely do not want to see the OPTIONS screens, no matter what, then add -G (see man page for details). -- Freddie Cash fjwcash(a)gmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org" |
