Before using it, I have always done a cvs update (now svn update) to the ports tree and I would do a simple 'pkg_version -v|grep needs' to see what ports were out-of-date and then portupgrade those specific ports. After I successfully built the latest versions everything was in sync. With pkgng I issue a 'pkg update' followed by a 'pkg upgrade' and it shows me x number of ports that need to be updated. So it updates and completes just fine and of course it's much faster than building from source. So I still keep my source, ports and docs in sync via svn update. Here's where the issue comes in. After I have done the pkg upgrade and it tells me all is up-to-date, the 'pkg_version -v |grep needs' command shows me dozens of ports that are not up-to-date and further the versions it's saying I have installed are not consistent with the versions that were installed through pkgng. If I try and portupgrade it won't upgrade the ports and just returns me to the prompt as if there is nothing out of date. Why is there such a difference here? It seems that if I do a pkgng update / pkg upgrade it should be consistent with the same versions that are being reported after an 'svn update' and report back that all ports are up-to-date no matter which command I type. So now I can't seem to upgrade through portupgrade to get the rest of the ports to the versions reported in the ports tree and pkgng says I'm up-to-date. It's one thing if pkgng doesn't have all the packages pre-compiled but then it should let me portupgrade from the ports tree for those ports that aren't available through pkgng. I would like to get the rest of my ports up-to-date with the ports tree like it used to work.
