 Hello,
 
 I kind of messed up the permissions of my /usr/local directory. Is  
 there a way to clean install all ports? I notice that manually

 clean versions of all my ports would be great.
 
 Any way to do this?

portupgrade -fa

Yeah, this is what I was using, but it doesn't seem to recreate  
permissions properly... it just seems to inherit permissions from the  
parent directory, although it sets permissions contained within the  
directory where the files are installed properly.


I could be mistaken here though...
