Ok, so I have reviewed the code and the command line parsing is a bit odd... It separates options to commands and flags. -ui is a flag, which is not entirely obvious. Options which seem to be interpreted as commands are -sl, -slid, -s, -u, -v or category/port. Other options are treated as flags -l, -ui, --resume, etc... So, "portmanager -u -ui" seems to do what you want. I might break down and rework the parsing code eventually, as I have had other complaints about the way options are handled... robert. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
