As was mentioned, you can use pkg_version -L =, or you can compare
it with INDEX.db instead of ports tree: pkg_version -IL =. This is
significantly faster.
pkg_version -L =
Usr: 7.286s Krnl: 3.984s Totl: 0:31.77s
pkg_version -IL =
Usr: 0.195s Krnl: 0.015s Totl: 0:00.21s
And if you want to know the version of newer (available) port, you
can use pkg_version -vIL =
It gives you something like this:
png-1.2.35 < needs updating (index has 1.2.38)
postfix-2.5.6,1 < needs updating (index has 2.6.3,1)
vim-lite-7.2.209 < needs updating (index has 7.2.239)

Thanks, guys!
However, a new issue appeared... Kind of. I know I read something
about portsnap and INDEX on the -current list recently, so I'm
guessing this is related? Maybe not, though (see later in the mail).

So... Using the index causes problems (or the opposite!). Could I be
using an index for something like HEAD despite not using that ports
tree? (Again, pretty new to this!)
I don't know how the INDEX files work, but I do know (thank you
DTrace) that INDEX-8 was the only one read during "pkg_version -vIL=".
Oh, and my understanding is that the INDEX-8 is fetched via portsnap?
Running the "fetch update" took less than 20 seconds (the cron job ran
about 2 hours ago, though), so I guess it cannot have been built (that
does take a lot of time, yes?)?
Regards,
Thomas
