Hello All

I've CVSup'd my system and my ports tree (ports-all). Now I'm using 

# pkg_version -v

to see which installed ports have an upgrade available. Working with this 
info, I go into each port I wish to upgrade and

# portupgrade -R port-name

I can't do a

# portupgrade -aR

as I can't leave Thinkpad up and running in one place long enough to build 
all of them.

I'm iteratively using the steps above to upgrade my ports tree. Is there a 
better/different way? Am I skipping any steps? Since I'm upgrading one 
port at a time, do I need to run portsdb? Also, I see references in the 
archives to 

# cd /usr/ports
# make index

Do I need to do this? Everything seems to be working well, I'm just 
wondering if my method is proper.

Thanks - JB
