            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?
