Any ideas?
Does portversion use the index file? If so I thought you had to cd /usr/src && make fetchindex, maybe after a cvsup. Also I seem to remember using portversion -l "<" when I used to use it a while back. To find the old ports.
Just read the man page online, -L is a inverse limit, it excludes. So if you have not cvsuped since you last upgraded that would be why you get nothing. You say it seems to run forever, have you let it finish or do you kill it? After you do the pkgdb -uv does it still take forever to finish, or does it seem to just hang?

Sorry, I guess I should have been clearer. I let portversion run for 12+ hours before I killed it. I just cvsuped the ports tree a few days ago, and make fetchindex didn't help me any. portversion -l = says give me the 'up-to-date' ports. portversion -L = says give me all the 'out-of-date' ports.
