portupgrade

Introduction

Portupgrade (also known as pkgtools) is a set of tools for working with ports and packages. It enhances system tools and adds many new abilities. It is easily and highly configurable, allowing you to create individual, variable environments for any port you like, and to define commands that will be executed before/after port upgrade stages.

pkgtools uses hash databases so access to information about available (in the ports tree) and installed ports and their dependencies is fast.

pkgtools consist of the utils:
