Have you refreshed the ports tree(s) with csup using the same supfile to

To elaborate a little. csup -L 2 ports is what refreshes the ports tree.
Portupgrade is a third party app you can install to assist in automating the
updating process. Once you've installed portupgrade there are man
Hi Jerry and Michael,
thanks for all the advise and information!!
I think I was confusing terminologies a little
I was trying to imply that I have been building from ports all this time
and *not* using pkg_add to obtain pre-built packages. I think mainly

You have to rebuild them.

I'll paraphrase what you said as I understand you;

upgrade-like action, but you'll have to take care for more
things manually.
From sysutils/bsdadminscripts - pkg_upgrade looks like what I
