I'd say worth it to standardize on NOT_FOR_ARCHS / ONLY_FOR_ARCHS to handle this sort of thing. By my calculations there are 28 ports that set 'BROKEN' because of architecture incompatibility on my amd64 system[*], whereas there are 904 ports that set either ONLY_FOR_ARCHS or NOT_FOR_ARCHS. Cheers, Matthew [*] there would be more on sparc64 or other tier-2 architectures, but the way I counted didn't pick those cases up, just the ones that set BROKEN on the current architecture. portindex=> SELECT p.parent || '/' || p.name as port FROM caveat NATURAL JOIN ports_by_name p WHERE caveat_type='BROKEN' AND caveat ~ 'sparc|i386|amd64|ia64|pc' ORDER BY port ; port -------------------- devel/ruby-avl devel/ustl games/xbloody graphics/gmt graphics/ruby-tgif irc/eggdrop japanese/ne lang/oorexx lang/py-prolog lang/qscheme lang/rscheme lang/scsh lang/sr math/matrix net-im/gyach net-mgmt/docsis net/cnet net/hawknl-devel net/ngrep-lib net/py-libnet net/tridiavnc science/elmerpost sysutils/freecolor sysutils/hpacucli textproc/coco textproc/rtfx x11-toolkits/fox17 x11/decurs (28 rows) -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate JID: matt...@infracaninophile.co.uk Kent, CT11 9PW
