portupgrade -af idea

Hi.I think there is something very useful that is missing from portupgrade.
When i make portupgrade -af in fact recompile all packages of my system and make all the appropriate updates.
But that i think is missing is that is not telling how many packages has already recompile and how much left to recompile.
For example i have 700 packages on my system. Ok. I am going to sk8 and when i am back 4 hours later continues to recompile.
But how many packages left? In the 4 hours i was skating how many packages all already done?
Portupgrade is not giving this information but i think it is very useful
 
portupgrade-devel does that. portupgrade might also, have been using -devel for a long time.

Code: 
# portupgrade -naf | less

Ok. Is anyone to know if portupgrade (no devel) do that?
What i suppose to add with -af?
Witch is the difference with portupgrade-devel?
 
Just tried portupgrade in a vm, and it does that too. Are you not seeing it, or just missing it in all the output?
 
When i run portupgrade -af i take something like this.

Code: 
[...]

He tells me that i have 619 (620-1 because deinstalling the package to reinstall it) packages but is not telling me how many packages left for recompile.

I run man portupgrade and:

Code: 
 -v
     --verbose              Turn on verbose output.

This is that i am looking for?
 
I've noticed that portupgrade puts some status in the process name accessible from ps(1). The process name usually looks like

Code: 
portupgrade: [x/y]

Where x is completed tasks, and y is total tasks.
 
I think most terminals (xterm, Terminal, etc.) and screen apps (tmux/screen) do that. E.g. portmaster always prints its progress in the 'bar', though the numbers may jump around a little when dependency trees are followed.
 
Ok. With ps i take exactly this!
Code: 
ps -A
3374   0  I+     0:18,71 ruby18: portupgrade: [B][340/619][/B] fusefs-ntfs-2010.3.6 (ruby18)
Solved :)
