Note that is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you use update-plist in conjunction with an installed pkglocatedb, both for new ports and for updates. It takes quite a bit more time, but it is very useful. You don't have to do it every time, setting UPDATE_PLIST_OPTS=-F will disable it on some runs, while you're polishing your plist. But not committing ports with conflicts will help the health of the tree tremendously.
