Hi! You want upgrade installed ports ? If yes then install /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade and read man pages for portsdb, pkgdb, portversion and portupgrade. This utils check what ports version in /usr/ports (portsdb) and what ports installed in your System (pkgdb). portversion - list all ports; sign '<' - what need updates. portupgrade do update work very fine. I use this utils about 2 year. Sorry for my bad english! Serge. Dragoncrest wrote: >Just recently ran into an issue upgrading, removing, or installing >ports.
