distribution ISOs as packages. Again, if you simply must have

Then burn your own ISOs any which way you like. Try to be more

sheer volume -- do you really want all of the sources for nearly
14,000 ports?
"*" is a package glob that applies only to the entries in the package
database, so you wont get the source 14,000 ports, unless you've already
installed them all.
Yeah, I guess I knew that wasn't quite right, thus the hedge
language: "something like". I suppose I should have just said "see
man portupgrade" or taken the time to do that myself. Thanks for the
clarification.
