Not just that. if wget depends on openssl-0.9.6 and now the library is |
| 7 |
gone, you can't even download wget sources to perform a recompile. |

I'd suggest a special precaution with production enviornments - always |
| 10 |
build binary packages. |
| 11 |
That way you can roll back very fast if things don't work out. |
| 12 |
You can use quickpkg to make one from the existing filesystem if you're |
| 13 |
about to upgrade important packages if you didn't build a binary package |
| 14 |
in the first place. |

Also, you might want to change /etc/make.conf AUTOCLEAN="yes" to no. |
