Used this several times. Awesome.
RE: [FreeBSD] Update script. - Amzo - 25-07-2012
what about entries in pkg_updating? Should add error checking for it.

Well I assume people read it before updating but I can make it print if ports are checking and prompt to do the updates or not.

Using this script for the first time in like 10 month. Pretty useful!
RE: [FreeBSD] Update script - berk - 06-07-2013
Used this script today. Legit. Great script, thanks yrmt.

Thanks Brosiff.

I very rarely check for updates and usually don't bother with the ports tree after the box install. I should probably start using this on a monthly basis or something. By the way are you Beastie? Just noticed from the top of the script and the alternate thread author.
RE: [FreeBSD] Update script - yrmt - 07-07-2013
Yes I'm beastie :)

Or he could post more on the forums.
RE: [FreeBSD] Update script - Robby - 08-07-2013
I'm on the IRC right now, I will try to come on the forums more. All I seem to do these days is play music and research for my college coursework. I'm currently compiling the FreeBSD world for the playstation on powerpc so we can get our spare OtherOS++ enabled playstation to dualboot FreeBSD and GameOS.

Wow thanks! This is quite useful and appreciated.
