Hi,

I'd like to upgrade (on -current) and, in the process, remove some cruft
accumulated over the years. I usually do sysupgrade and sysclean for
system.

But for packages, I think I would be better to reinstall everything
since "pkg_check -F" does not seems to complain and I can see I have,
for example, some firefox-57 files left.

I think I could do the following but I don't know if it is safe:
        - sysupgrade (+ sysclean)
        - pkg_info -mz > mypkg
        - umount /usr/local
        - newfs partition_of_usr_local
        - mount /usr/local
        - pkg_add -l mypkg

Or maybe, I should dump, do a complete reinstall, pkg_add -l mypkg,
restore /home and, tediously, restore some /etc files.
How would you do this?
