Hello,

After running portsdb -Uu I ran a portupgrade -a.

Other than taking two days to finish is there a reason why upgrading "ALL"
ports at one time is a bad idea?

one other thing. I got  hundreds of _POSIX_C_SOURCE: not defined errors.

I am assuming this is some kind of system variable that defines where my C
Source files are located. If I am correct would someone tell me what this
setting should be and where to find the file that I set it in?

As always the newbies mailing list is a great help. Thanks in advance.




Thank you,
Joshua Lewis
