WELL, if you *are* updating ports, the first thing to do is *TO BUILD THE ORIGINAL PORTS* to have a reference point. For instance, if you run lib-depends-check *on the original port*, you will see if the WANTLIB are uptodate, or if X/gtk/whatever changed enough to require changes. That makes it easier to spot new things happening with the update.
