I continue running the port tests, now including the ports which are not
installed on my computer (the script is available on the above site).
About once per week I update the ports with csup.

Now I faced a new issue. The port biology/distribfold is interactive duri=
ng
deinstall. This stops the tests and needs reading the logs, answering the
questions etc... The Porter's Handbook does not say a word if this is cor=
rect
or not. OK, that means it is correct. But still it is a problem for the t=
ests.

Can anybody advise what to do in this case?
