1. should I rebuild all ports? (I think it should take one whole day...) 2. If I am to rebuild all ports, what is the command I should use?
Take a look at this message

There is a script made by Benjamin Lutz that checks all ports need to be rebuilded, so, you need to rebuild all these packages using portupgrade -f packagename, or use the /etc/libmap.conf.
Thanks for pointing me to the script!! I have saved the script to my computer,
run it and it said that there are 60 packages that I should upgrade. I will upgrade
them slowly when I have the spare time.
However, I still don't get how /etc/libmap.conf can be used to work around
this problem without rebuilding the ports.
Thanks.
