Bug ID: 199571
Summary: ports-mgmt/portmaster: [change-request] please ban
portmaster
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)
Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
Reporter: torsten.eichstaedt at web.de
Rationale: portmaster is a >4000 (!!!) line shell script. It's common sense
that shell scripts are ok for small tasks but quickly become unmaintanable once
they grow.
Portmaster should simply do "cd /usr/ports && make help"
Don't laugh I'm serious with this.
