Portupgrade is a tool to upgrade installed packages via ports or
packages.  You can upgrade installed packages without having to
reinstall depending or dependent packages.  It can automatically trace
dependency chains up and down upgrading packages recursively.

This package also includes the following utilities:
portinstall:	Helps you install new ports in a handy way.
portcvsweb:	Instantly lets you browse change history via CVSweb.
portversion:	Replaces pkg_version(1) and helps you upgrade packages
		with portupgrade(1). (runs much faster)
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 additional 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:		Manages and searches the package database.

  Author: sem@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    As was claimed in the entry 20070301 below in this file, you should fill
    ALT_DEPENDS section of pkgtools.conf for portupgrade to work correctly
    with your alternative dependencies. Now it's an obligatory requirement.
  
    It was done as a compromise between speed and complexity.

  Affects: users of ports-mgmt/portupgrade*

  Author: sem@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    Because of a bug in previous version, it's recommended you fill ALT_PKGDEP
    section in pkgtools.conf file for portupgrade be aware of alternative
    dependencies you use, and run pkgdb -L to restore dependencies that was
    lost.
  
    Example of ALT_PKGDEP section:
    ALT_PKGDEP = {
      'www/apache13' => 'www/apache13-modssl',
      'print/ghostscript-afpl' => 'print/ghostscript-gnu',
    }
  
    Note also, portupgrade knows nothing how to handle ports with different
    suffixes (E.g. -nox11). So you should define explicitly variables
    (E.g. WITHOUT_X11=yes) for the ports in /etc/make.conf or pkgtools.conf
    (MAKE_ARGS section) files.
  
  

• port moved here from sysutils/portupgrade on 2007-02-05
  REASON: Moved to a new category
  

- Remove perl dependency. perl is not used for some time as it was before.

- Update to 2.4.6
  * Many bugs was fixed
  * a new pkgdu utility shows installed packages disk usage

PR:             many

Fix pkg-plist with NOPORTDOCS=yes

- Remove code that gather not installed depends. It makes more problems
  than solves.

Discussed with: pav

- Fix a crash that caused sometimes when -R option specified.

Reported by:    pav

- Upgrade both ports to 2.4.3
  * Change a legacy part of code for gathering dependecies. It fixes
    situation when some depends ports could be updated even when it
    was up-to-date. As a result I added another check for -R option.
  * Fix a wrong condition in portsclean. Now -L option works again.
  * Change a semantic for -q option. Now it means 'quiet'. Don't
    show a message when -N specified and there is an already installed
    package. (Made for DesktopBSD).

Reported by:    pav, Peter Hofer (DesktopBSD)

- When -o specifised, gather depends for specified origin.
- Just ignore a package if there is no port directory exists. A correct way
  for users is to place the ports in HOLD_PKGS in pkgtools,conf, but
  they did not. So it makes my life a little easy.

- Update to 2.4.2.
  * Many bugs fixed (thanks to all reporters).
  * Semantic for -c and -C has changed. -c runs 'make config-conditional'
    and -C 'make config' (forced config).
  * All ports now runs under portupgrade/portinstall control.

- A patch from HEAD: when gcc installed, some libraries may be conflicted
  with system ones. portsclean -Li ask to remove them. No removes by
  default, but we don't want an user remove system libraries just press 'y'
  in portscleanup -Li.

PR:             ports/116830
Reported by:    clemens fischer <ino-news at spotteswoode.dnsalias.org>

Remove print/ghostscript-afpl as it has been replaced by print/ghostscript-gpl
since version 8.57. The leading ghostscript is the -gpl one.

Approved by:    portmgr (pav)

- Remove scared sentence from pkg-message

Asked by:       krion

- Update to 2.3.1. Many people test it and it looks good.
  To upgrade back from portupgrade-devel use the command:
  portupgrade -o ports-mgmt/portupgrade portupgrade-devel

- Remove the last patch. This fix makes other troubles.

Reported on:    ports@

- Fix a long standing bug when shelljoin() function wrong placed ""
  when more than one variables (WITH_*, WITHOUT_*) passed.

- Ignore bsdpan- pseudo ports.
- Add a note about ports with suffixes (e.g. -nox11)

Reported by:    David Morgan <morgad_AT_eclipse.co.uk>,
                Philip Kizer <pckizer_AT_nostrum.com>

- Update to 2.2.6 version.
  An unpleasant bug was fixed when pkgdb could accidently remove some
  dependencies in +CONTENTS files. It's recomented to run pkgdb -L once
  after upgrade to fix dependencies list. See UPDATING file.

Reported and tested by: Randy Pratt <bsd-unix_AT_earthlink.net>

- Fix after moving to a new category.

Populate a new ports-mgmt category. List of moved ports:

  devel/portcheckout -> ports-mgmt/portcheckout
  devel/portlint -> ports-mgmt/portlint
  devel/portmk -> ports-mgmt/portmk
  devel/porttools -> ports-mgmt/porttools
  misc/instant-tinderbox -> ports-mgmt/instant-tinderbox
  misc/porteasy -> ports-mgmt/porteasy
  misc/portell -> ports-mgmt/portell
