I've run /usr/ports/infrastructure/build/out-of-date, got the
output, http://puffy.pl/update
What is the best way to update all the ports?
Either you use pkg_add to update your ports from the snapshot
directory on the ftp server (set PKG_PATH to the right directory,
AFAIR it is described in the FAQ) or you can try a "little" Perl
script I wrote. It builds ports (in parallel builds if you wish) in
the correct build order and updates the installed packages.
Instructions how to get the script can be found here:

I would like to hear either success or failure reports from those
using the script.
I can recommend this script if official binary packages aren't
an option. The script works fairly well for building from source.
Thanks for all the replies, i want to do all from source to see if it
builds properly.
I've managed to update all with make update in port directory/some
combination with pkg_add.
