Is there a way to list what ports have been installed on a system, the
version, perhaps date installed, and for each of those installed ports,
the version currently available in the ports collection? Right now I
just jot down what I install on a steno pad; simple, but so low tech.
Imaginary report (bogus data):
------ Installed ------ ------ Released ------
Category Name Version Date Version Date
security openssl 0.9.6e_1 2002-08-08 0.9.6e_1 2002-08-08
* sysutils webmin 0.98 2002-07-15 0.99 2002-08-01
* = newer version available
Related, when make install reports registering installation, what is it
doing?
