Thanks all, OK. I've run portsdb -Uu. Now, I have a few new errors to report. But, first, assuming the errors are not critical, where do I re-enter the process I started? Just try portupgrade -r <port name>? Would portugrade -ra not skip everything except what still needs updating? Here's the new errors from portsdb -Uu.
