You can browse and search through your Portstree and perform actions
like Upgrades, Installs, Uninstall a.s.o. More advanced features like
setting Options and Vulnerability checking are also available. For a
complete list, check the Homepage or the Changelog.
Functionality is KPorts' main goal, not simplification by reducing
options; however KPorts should be rather easy to use.

* Fix a bug with a time delta. When build took over 24 hour.
* Allow origins in ALT_PKGDEP.
* Add -e (--emit-summaries) option to show summary messages.
* Fix portupgrade working when stdin is closed. [1]
- Get back sf.net to MASTER_SITES
- Add CONFLICTS with portupgrade-devel

It's exactly like 2.1.3 but without summary messages and
fixed bug when BDB4 was defined but tried only bdb1 driver and
fall back to dbd driver.
- Add an option WITH_BDB1. Both BDB1 and BDB4 options can be off.
Ruby dbd driver will use in the case.
- 97406 (ghostscript refactoring) was removed from the -exp run due to errors
- 95841 (remove legacy code) was backed out after commit, due to its still
being needed for kdelibs3 among others
This is a bug fix and general improvement release. From the change log:
- Incorporate local ports/categories into the INDEX by scanning Makefile.local
for additions to $SUBDIR. Mentioned on freebsd-ports@freebsd.org by
Rong-En Fan <rafan (at) infor.org>
- Clean up error messages, and factor out common progress counter code.
- Add a new Category object type, and cope better with changes to categories
(ie. ports being hooked up / unhooked from the tree). Problem pointed out by
Colin Percival <cperciva (at) freebsd.org>
- Instead of calling perl to compile exactly the same bit of perl code from
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.ports.mk about 15,000 times (ie once per port) as a
consequence of actually running 'make describe', just call perl once, use make
to print out the basic variables from the port and replicate the processing
done ourselves.

=============
1. Add -b option to make a backup package of the installed port
2. Add -g option to make a package of the new port
3. Add -o option to replace an installed port with a new port from a
different location (e.g., portmaster -o emulators/linux_base-fc4 linux_base)
The second argument can also be specified as the name of the installed port
(e.g., linux_base-8-8.0_15)
4. Add -s option to detect no-longer-needed dependencies, and offer the user
a choice to delete them.
General improvements:
=====================
1. Update usage() to reflect reality, and organize it better
2. Switch to using DEPORIGIN to detect missing dependency tracking, which
provides dramatically fewer false positives, and more useful tools to fix
actual problems
3. Factor out more common code into functions
4. Only pay attention to +REQUIRED_BY files for dependency tracking if they
are > 0 bytes
5. Simplify option parsing
6. Make whitespace more consistent in -a message
7. Only grep for dependencies if we're upgrading an installed port
8. If using -o, or a port moved, try to find the names of the old distfiles,
and offer the user the choice to remove all of the, or prune the stale ones.
Bug fixes:
==========
1. Fix the PATH if a user is using ccache
2. Handle the case where there is no ORIGIN in a +CONTENTS file
3. Ignore errors in the tail of fetchlog, since if the file is gone we'll
exit the loop anyway
* Add -e (--emit-summaries) option and show summary messages only when
the option defined or verbose mode is on. [1]
* Allow origins in ALT_PKGDEP. This announced in pkgtools.conf
but did not work really. [2]
* Run 'make config' before all operations unless -j (--jet-mode)
option specified. [3]
* Add lock on operations with pkgdb.db. Now you can safe run a few
portupgrade(1).
* Incorrectly calculated upgrade time when it is more 24 hours. [4]
* Other fixes and impovements.

- allow to depend on csup (default) or cvsup [2]
- default database is now mysql [2]
This port still needs a lot of work and it would be great if one of the wizards
that know tindy's insides would take maintainership (current maintainer seem
to be gone, no feedback rom him for > 1 month).

o Add ALT_INDEX array to pkgtools.conf. The array holds additional
INDEX files. Useful for local categories.
o Add to pkgtools.conf a new dirrective: include_hash('glob').
It downloads keys and values (splitted by '=>') from files
coincided with 'glob' and returns a filled hash. The glob is
related to PREFIX. [1]
o Add a summary messages on each upgrade/install transaction:
how many tasks and how many task done. [2]
o Make portupgrade(1) with -D option really remove a broken distfile.
But it works only if FETCH_CMD set to use fetch(1) (it's default). [3]
o Bugs fixes

port descriptions given the port's name or a glob. Basically to view
the descriptions of GCC (related) ports you type
portless gcc\*
and portless will display the descriptions of all gcc* ports.
There are options to display the postinstall messages or Makefiles instead.

o Really fix *_rc_scripts. The last fix was uncomplited.
o Set both make argument and environment variable to PORT_UPGRADE=yes.
It makes possible a port or a package (via install/deinstall scripts)
to detect if it builds/installs/deinstalls under portupgrade(1) [1]
o Add to pkgtools.conf a new directive: include_eval('file')
The file will included and evaluated in the place where encountered.
The file path looking inside of PREFIX. [2]
o Add to pkgtools.conf ALT_MOVED. The array holds alternate MOVED file.
E.g. for files in EXTRA_CATEGORIES. [3]
o Allow install port by origin. E.g. portinstall lang/ruby18
o Make pkgdb offer install a stale dependency before selecting it from
installed. [4]
- Add own mirror to prevent delay while distfile appears on MASTER_SITE_LOCAL.

o Fix -O that should force ignoring dependency errors,
but really did not work [1]
o Add PKG_BACKUP_DIR environment variable where specified
a directory where will keep saved packages (-b).
Default: PKG_PATH (PORTSDIR/packages/All) [2]
o Add MAKE_ENV in pkgtools.conf that is like MAKE_ARGS but
allows to set environment variables for ports [3]
o Fix pkg_fetch(1) to guess a right source directory for
download (All or Latest). It works in much more cases now [4]
And make a notice for using of '@' in package name more clean.
o *_rc_scripts internal procs don't recognize RC-scripts without .sh.
It's wrong for 6.0+ [5]
o Fix pkgdb -s [6]
o Add firefox in a browser list in portcvsweb(1)
o Revive NEWS file
