Hi. I've read the handbook and the porter's handbook, and have looked at /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.*, but still haven't found an answer to my question.
Is it possible, with a simple command or script, to update all of the ports I have installed at once? I mean, I want to make sure that all of the ports that I use are the latest version, but I don't want to install ports that I don't use.
If anyone has a good way of doing this automatically, please let me know. (I'm using -STABLE, if that matters.)
I wouldn't recomend doing all at once, but "portupgrade -u '*'" will do the job as long as all the installed ports have their origin info recorded. Relatively newly installed ones should have it. Try running "pkg_info -o /var/db/pkg/*" to see which ports lack that info. Currently there's no handy way to complement it, so upgrade it using portupgrade's -o option. (See portupgrade's README for details)
e.g.: portupgrade -fu -o shells/zsh-devel zsh portupgrade -ucCp '*' portupgrade -cC gnome\*
I've been planning to write a tool to complete origins and some people kindly submitted me suggestions, but unfortunately I don't have enough time to write a decent one...
Portupgrade is in the ports tree, address sysutils/portupgrade.
