Ok, will do. INDEX landed in Latest for the time being, but I'll move it to the correct place once I tighten up the scripts. > >> portmaster -PP -v --update-if-newer > > The --update-if-newer flag is only useful if you're feeding portmaster a > list of ports, some of which are already up to date.

I've had good luck following this guide: http://marc.info/?l=freebsd-ports&m=117761097231712, but I had to make changes to bsd.port.mk (PRs filed) to get some parts working. I found portshaker today, and that looks useful for managing ports tree overlays, too.
