With the move to FreeBSD 13.0 is there a simple (single step) way to

12.0
as many ports in the list, of course, were dependent on other ports, but
then got
recompiled, sometimes multiple times. I know I ended up in a make loop where
came
was compiled over and over again until I aborted, listed the current ports,
differ
on the previous ports, and picked a port I though would have a lot of reps
to
restart the compile. I then did this several more times to get back to where
I had
been on 11.x
And there's still no way to tell if a port was installed from pkg or from
ports,
correct? Since I use MariaDB instead of MySQLI have to be sure I don't try
to use
package for anything that will try to install MySQL instead.
And finally, the release of 13.0 ends the 12.x versions, right? There will
not be a 12.3.
(And yes, I've tried moving to poudrerie several times and we do not get on.
At all.)
Not a big fan of poudrerie. If I must, I generally choose synth. But try to
avoid both
if at all possible. jail(8) is my go-to for most things they try to
facilitate.
While this isn't the simple "set it, and forget it" solution you seek. I find
that
picking a meta-port/package as part of something I'm installing, gets me
pretty close
to all I need.
The key to my method is the "recursive" keyword. IOW
# cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg/
# make config-recursive (repeat this until dialog stops appearing)
When complete
# make package-recursive (install) clean
If I'm in my build jail and have a /usr/ports/packages/(All|latest)
I (ultimately) end up with a nice package repo that facilitates an image
install
or upgrade path from a fresh install.
