Thanks a lot for the direction. All goes well until portupgrade asks me
to run 'pkgdb -F',
which asks me to resolve stale dependencies. I have a large number of
ports installed and
the dependencies seem somewhat intractable for manual resolution. Is
this the only way
to resolve the stale dependencies or am I as usual missing something :-(
? From the pkgdb
manpage I could not understand the implication of the score and how that
helps me
select a new dependency...
