 Sometimes, when upgrading some ports, it hangs, and then just sits there.
 Resulting in that all internet is gone on the computer. It has happerened
 a 3-4 times over maybe past 2 years. A restart of the computer helps it.
 Now last time (the other day) I also changed my DNS to 1.1.1.1 instead of
 using the `dnscrypt-proxy` - which uses the same. Don't know if that is
 related, and where/what to start looking for the next time it happens.

 Last time it was a perl-port, so I took a screenshot of it. When you try
 to close the Terminal window - a ''LOT'' of pings are still
 active/running. And they can't be killed off. Restarting Firefox says it
 alrady has a version running, etc. A full restart is the only way.

 I couldn't find anything when searching. U don't know if it's a bug or
 not, but I wanted to report it anyway. It's clearly not the intended
 behaviour. At least I assume that. :)
