I'm debugging a problem with portupgrade being used as part of an automated package

The problem is that when the handler executes portupgrade as an external process from ruby, portupgrade hangs with a script process taking up 100% of the cpu. I suspected that script isn't designed to be run without a controlling tty. So, I executed portupgrade like
so to test:

portupgrade --new --batch --yes <port> <&- >&- 2>&- &

To my surprise, portupgrade exits immediately with a status of 0. I found an old pr (bin/56166) describing similar behavior. It looks like script was fixed, but portupgrade
still isn't happy.

This happens with both ports-mgmt/portupgrade and ports-mgmt/portupgrade-devel.

Suggestions?


portupgrade was fixed to work when tty is not a physical device but file or so.

I think you don't want to run portupgade this way really. You have a possibility to brake everything.


I'm not sure how well ruby's debug mode does compared to perl, or how it works in comparison, but try preceding the portupgrade command with '/usr/local/bin/ruby18 -d', to force portupgrade to run in debug mode.
