Upgrading my ports collection I noticed a lot of ports that wanted to
install gamin. This didn't work though, cause files are installed at
the same place as FAM (already installed on my system as a dep of
courier).

Running pkgdb -F everytime is not pleasant. What is (are) the advantage
(s) of gamin over fam? Is it wise to change to gamin?
