I am not sure if I quite understand this entire ports updating scenario correctly. I I run the command: 'cvsup ports-supfile', I then need to run either 'portsdb -Uu' or 'make index'. I also have the option of running 'make fetchindex' in place of either of those two proceeding commands. Is that correct? I would assume, that I should run the 'make fetchindex' command immediately after running the 'cvsup' command. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a better way to accomplish this feat? Thanks!
