It's really not appropriate to hijack the portupgrade thread for this,
so I'm starting a new subject. Also, please respect followups to -ports.

Don't remember everything of that sort but here are a couple of things
I would like to ask portmaster users' opinion and advice about:
1. I see a significant difference in the time it takes to get the same
information using the two tools:
As I understand it, portupgrade uses the INDEX file to determine
whether ports are up to date. Portmaster recurses through each
installed port and does 'make -V PKGVERSION'.
2. It looks like there are no `portmaster' equivalents to
`portupgrade' `-P' and `-PP' options, which I want to have.
If portupgrade does the job for you, keep using it. :) I have said
many times that I'm not looking to write a portupgrade replacement.
Use the right tool for the job(s) you have to do.
Good luck,
Doug
