Hi,

BSD and Apple needs tsort(1) for portage still I believe.

Topological sorting isn't quite right packaging.

Please see:  http://sourceforge.net/projects/dep-trace

It is a "drop-in" replacement (operates like a /bin/tsort) but is right for pkg 
depends

(ie, for portage: you need to dl source, order of compile may be required, sometimes gets missing message or "loop in depends" message when attempting to compile and install pkg)

I'm a debian user but i wish I had a bsd machine :) So i do not know allot of BSD maintainer / mailing list specifics. Please give me a handicap there !

Thanks and thanks again,

        John

p.s.

(dep-trace itself has no depends (a /bin), has improvements, and is "more 
hackable" than tsort as to
coding new ordering rules against lists - which in tsort "loop detected attempting 
to recover" is
not as easy i feel.
