Hi everyone,

after a botched upgrade from 5.2.1 to 5.3, which became a
reinstallation, I have the following dilemma.  I have about 300 ports
installed, but only a few of them are identified by my port
maintenance apparatus.  For example, if I do portversion, it finds the
objects in

/var/db/pkg

but I can run programs that are not there.  Presumably the ones there
are those that I have installed since my upgrade.

Is there any easy way around this problem?  I suppose that what I'm
asking is, is there any other location in which installed ports are
identified?  I assume that I ought to reinstall them anyway.

Thanks,

Andrew
