upgrading ports using portupgrade
cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade
make install clean
# portupgrade -ai
When you run portupgrade -a, portupgrade will begin to upgrade all the outdated ports installed on your system. Use the -i flag if you want to be asked for confirmation of every individual upgrade
# portupgrade -R firefox
If you want to upgrade only a certain application, not all available ports, use portupgrade pkgname. Include the-R
flag if portupgrade should
first upgrade all the ports required by the given application.
# portupgrade -PP gnome2
To use packages instead of ports for installation, provide-P
flag. With this option portupgrade
searches the local directories listed in PKG_PATH, or fetches
packages from remote site if it is not found locally. If packages can not be found
locally or fetched remotely, portupgrade will use ports. To avoid using ports, specify-PP
.
