            Bug ID: 190532
           Summary: ports-mgmt/portmaster needs new debug option
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mikhail.rokhin at gmail.com

When building huge ports like gnome or kde it happens sometime that some port
fails breaking all building (such a disaster for 500+ ports build to start
again and again), but you could ease the whole thing adding options:

a) rebuild failed port, letting user to correct it, if possible;
b) to launch config of parent port to cancel failing port and return to the
point of port building

For e.g. vlc has option of fluidsynth and fluidsynth failed:
..
===> r) rebuild port c) launch config of parent to disable failing port f) fail

Thank you in advance.
