 Hi
 
 With regret, as a former supporter, I must say that pkg_replace abandoned
 (maintainer is the author, last commit to cvs Thu Apr 3 20:00:22 2008 UTC)
 and begins to bitrot.
 Fortunately, we have portmaster now, which while not command line compatible
 with portupgrade, is actively maintained and have a nice feature set.
 Therefore I propose to deprecate pkg_replace.

 Adios
