Hi,

When I install, using port, a big software with lot's of dependencies (the meta port gnome2 for example):
How can I display, at the end of the installation, all the "pkg-message" of all ports that were installed with gnome2 ?

Thanks,

portmaster does that by default. So portmaster x11/gnome2 will display all package messages after it has built everything.


At the conclusion of a successful installation, any pkg-message files
that were installed, and a summary of the work performed will be dis-
played.
