I think you're looking for sysmerge options -d and -p. If I understand correctly that you try to achive, when I'll do somethign like that: 1. pkg_info -mz -- to get list of installed packages 2. sysmerge -d -- to get changes in system's config files 3. sysmerge -d -p -- to get changes in port's config files with all of this in new machine: 1. pkg_add $(cat list-with-packages) 2. apply diff from previous (2) 3. apply diff from previous (3) -- wbr, Kirill
