I don't think this is going to fulfill your requirements, if you're missing the install messages while installing ports you're going to miss the +pkg1 pkg2 -pkg1 pkg2 too as pkg_add is run multiple times, i.e after each dependency is built and at the end installing the original. > >That's quite enough.
