make index does take a good 20 minutes on a dual core machine, but it's not strictly needed, as pkg_version -vl"<" (or pkg version -vl"<" if you're using the new pkg system) work well, albeit more slowly than if they had an index (as in pkg_version -vIl"<") portmaster doesn't require an index to update stuff. I can't remember if portupgrade does. The index can be [re]built at your leisure while other things are going on (such as rebuilding out-of-date ports), if you don't mind the additional CPU & IO load. -- -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
