That shouldn't actually be to hard. If a utility like the three main
upgrade tools that are being used the most right now would export a
variable for say "UPGRADING=yes" then the uninstall script could check
against that to decide whether or not the port is being removed or
upgraded and make the proper decision while alerting the admin to whats
going on.
The previous author of portupgrade and I agreed on the following
variables to be set in our tools:
UPGRADE_TOOL=portmaster
UPGRADE_PORT=<name of port with version>
UPGRADE_PORT_VER=`echo $UPGRADE_PORT | sed 's#.*-\(.*\)#\1#'`
The last 2 are not set if this is a new install.
