That's normal for major version upgrades. The Handbook says as much: whether you upgrade FreeBSD from source or using `freebsd-update`, or just install FreeBSD from scratch, you'll need to (re)install your ports or packages. So it's always been. There is a work-around in the form of the "misc/compatXx" ports (e.g. misc/compat10x) that will allow you to temporarily continue working with your currently installed ports while the upgrade is in progress. If you just use packages, upgrading everything at once is fine. -- :: Brandon J.
