Hi all.
I'm all about automation. I'd like to automate most tasks so I can
schedule them or write a script with which everything would be done
automatically.
I have some difficulties with current port options framework:
1. Is there a good way to set/unset any option from command line without
firing up dialog? Something like 'make -C port/dir -DSET=OPT1,OPT2
-DUNSET=OPT3 updateconfig'.
2. Is there a good way to query for option updates? You know when you
are building a port the option dialog will still be shown if there are
new options not present in current config. Can I get those options
somehow like 'make -C port/dir changedconfig'?
I think I need to write some scripts to handle this situations myself
but I just want to ask whether someone had done that before or maybe
such functionality is pending?
