No, pkg version in a crontab entry from which I also update ports nightly:

00      01      *       *       *       root    /usr/local/bin/svn up 
/usr/ports; /usr/sbin/pkg version -vL= > /root/updated-pkg-list

(before anyone asks, despite having PATH defined, I still need to put 
full path on commands, dunno why)
