Then I just do portupgrade -a and generally most of the time it does OK. I have noticed that it seems to be smoother with less hiccups when run more often so as to only need to update a few at a time rather than waiting until a whole lot of stuff needs updating. The reason I do it in the sequence I do is I believe this way the package database and the INDEX stay in sync. I have noticed some odd behaviors in the last 3 months, or so. So far no catastrophe. But I have seen portupgrade something and then a subsequent run shows this port as being 'newer' than the version it's supposed to be. I've also noticed a few times it seemed like it was upgrading the same version(s) over again. I just chalked this up to the ports system being in a state of flux and it hasn't actually led to any problems so I've just ignored it. -Mike
