Macports dependency build (Suggestion)

[Keith J. Schultz]

Hi All,

	I have noticed that port goes through the dependency list sequentially,
	and build accordingly. This is actually O.K., but it would be nice I  
the ports
	with the most "dependants" first.  This way if any thing happens  
before the build
	is complete I can build others.  It should not be to complicated to  
implement.
	
	The reason for suggusting this is that I have been trying to install  
gnome and
	came across a few problems. I wanted to get as much installed as I  
can. So I would start
	one install and another parralel to that !! But, I had to be  
carefull which port I was installing
	sothat they would not block each other. If the ports whith the most  
depends where build
	first I could install more efficiently as the check is quicker  
esspecially with a package like
	gnome.


	regards
