I'd like to switch from installing and upgrading our packages using portmaster/portupgrade to using pkg + binary packages from the ports cluster as much as possible.
I understand that the ports cluster builds its packages using default options, but some of our packages we need built with custom options (e.g. enable mysql for postfix). Is there a tool that can look at /var/db/ports/foo/options and tell which options differ from the default options? Then I could decide whether I can live with the defaults (and therefore use the binary package), or whether to pkg-lock that package and update it by hand using portmaster. Or is there a better way to handle this situation, where I want to use binary packages where possible and only build when necessary? Thanks for your help.
