Reading the handbook and several pages on the web, i got the impression that
ports are always compiled from source.
I should have read the handbook more thorougly, sorry. It mentions portupgrade

Hi,
I did a freebsd-update to 7.1-RELEASE as described in the release notes.
After that, I installed Openoffice (with pkg_add) and got several warnings like
this one:
pkg_add: warning: package 'gnome-vfs-2.22.0_2' requires 'atk-1.22.0_1', but
'atk-1.20.0' is installed
Now I did
# pkg_add -r atk
pkg_add: package 'atk-1.22.0_1' or its older version already installed
so with pkg_add -r I get newer packages than I got with freebsd-update. Why?
freebsd-update only updates the base system. It doesn't touch ports.

Portmaster is also nice to update ports. Plus its doesn't have dependecies.
