FreeBSD doesnt build packages immediately when port updates happen. That is reality we have to live with I believe. I wonder of today's bash issue will modify that. At any rate, sInce I went to freebsd 10 I have been doing this. portsnap fetch update && pkg upgrade && pkg version -vIL= These 3 commands get me the latest ports tree, all available pkg updates, and then I am told if there are any updates pending. At that point I can either portupgrade pkgname or just wait.
