@ocicat: Thanks, it's good to know about that in general. However, I've never used ports, and my sense is that for my situation sticking with binary packages is the way to go. Given the reasoning in my last paragraph, the typescript file is a practical way for me to find targeted install messages without extra effort (until, of course, I delete the file )

@jggimi: I initially missed seeing your post in the parent thread. Thanks. I think my prior post in this thread replies to that as well.
