            Bug ID: 214679
           Summary: "Recommendation" for portmaster and portupgrade needs
                    to be removed
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: marino@FreeBSD.org

Per precedent (bug 206922), statements that lead one to believe that
portupgrade or portmaster tools are "recommended" need to be removed from
documentation.

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ports-using.html
Chapter 4.5.3. Upgrading Ports

Last line: "To perform the actual upgrade, use either Portmaster or
Portupgrade."


Ways of addressing:
A) change to a generic statement (e.g. mention repository builder or build tool
by description, not name)
B) list every possible current tool by name (e.g. add poudriere and synth,
there could be others)
C) remove the line.  Is it needed?
