Portupgrade is a tool to upgrade installed packages via ports or
packages. It upgrades installed packages without reinstalling
depending or dependent packages by directly updating the package
registry database located under /var/db/pkg, while it can also trace
dependency chains up and down to upgrade packages recursively.
This package also includes the following utilities:
portinstall: Helps you install new ports in a handy way.
portcvsweb: Instantly browses change history via CVSweb.
portversion: Replaces pkg_version(1), runs much faster and is
cooperative with portupgrade(1).
portsclean: Cleans ports workdir's, unreferenced distfiles,
old and orphan shared libraries, and stale packages.
portsdb: Creates binary database from the ports INDEX.
ports_glob: Expands ports globs.
pkg_deinstall: Wraps pkg_delete(1) and provides extra features.
pkg_fetch: Fetches packages from a remote site.
pkg_glob: Expands package globs.
pkg_which: Checks which package a file came from quickly.
pkgdb: Manipulate the package database and interactively
fixes most problems in the /var/db/pkg registry.
