Then you have the ports or third party applications which you can binary upgrade with the old way pkg_tools (replace tools with add, delete etc) or the new generation pkg tools. They can also be kept up to date via source with the make tools or you can use portmaster, portupgrade and friends for keeping them up to date via source and/or binary packages. > > I also was wondering why on RC portupgrade was working fine, while on > a release it failed.

I don't know what the current pkg repositories for the new generation pkg tools (or the older pkg_tools) are, thus I build them for myself with poudriere. > > Best regards :-) > Tomek >
