Ok, I'm trying to upgrade firefox from the ancient 1.0.6 ive been stuck
with to the new shiny 1.5.whatever that I just noticed is availible.
The problem is, it has a lot of deps that need updating.
Right now, I'm manually re-running pkg-get -i firefox, waiting for it to
DL 20 megs, then waiting to see which package dep needs updating, then
repeating the process down the chain for each package ....
running pkg-get -h doesnt seem to provide a better way.
Is there a quicker way I can give pkg-get an argument to "update
dependancies as needed but dont update everything on my system", as I do
-NOT- want to invoke a qt/kde update by accident...
does that question make sense?
