I’ve written a small script to find the ports that will be installed when the current port is installed. All it does is look at the dependencies of the port and remove all the ports that are currently installed.

I’ve written a port for it so hopefully it will be in the port collection soon.

Update: There is an undocumented target in the Ports collection to do this. To use i run:

make missing

from a ports directory.

I’ve got the golden ticket

Last night I camped outside Real Groovy Christchurch to get a ticket to one of the New Zealand Red Hot Chili Peppers concerts. I arrived not long after 5pm and had to wait 16 hours until 9am this morning. Luckily I managed to get my ticket not long before they sold out. The Newstalk ZB site claims the tickets sold out in 20 minutes but I got mine at 9:25. It took a few attempts by the lady behind the counter so there must not have been many left.
