Hopefully we can ship automatic migration in MacPorts base soon and

Yeah, please notify me once this happens; I've been reluctant to
update from Big Sur just due to how much of a pain the
restore_ports.tcl process can be...
If you want to help this happen faster, please feel free to test the
migration branch of base:
<https://github.com/neverpanic/macports-base/tree/migration>
or this prototype I recently made of a slightly different method, which
among other things will not reinstall ports that have 'platforms any' or
'platforms {darwin any}':

Bear in mind this is bleeding edge stuff; there are almost certainly
still bugs, so we'd love to know about them so we can fix them.
