As I said, I do get your point. Nevertheless, I still think that something
could be done. As of now I can locally duplicate a portfile, which has the
effect of completely

I get your point, but wouldn't a warning during build phase suffice? Be it a
leaf or node the port marked to not be upgraded. As of now, if port A, a leaf,
doesn't compile due to a bug in my system version, the only feasible solution
is to move the working Portfile to a local repo, or use a git

Not aware of any other ways. Feel free to open a ticket, but please
check for an existing one first.

It is not, but a local portfile seems to also override a potential upgrade.
Any other ways? Shoul

'outdated' will be default not include ports that have a newer version

Thanks, I have forgotten the syntax for that. I guess I could make an
alias/function of it.

That would be ideal. Would it be feasibl
An even better feature would be a custom marking procedure that would allow a
user to “label” certain ports such as mysetofvideoports or mysetoftexteditors
or whatever and then allow port actions to ignore or perform
operations on just those sets. You could then create your own custom blacklist

Masking is useful, of course, but there is a difference between not
wanting to upgrade and not being able to upgrade due to a port/
On gentoo I prefer to modify /etc/portage/package.mask
where I can specify packages' versions which I do not want to upgrade.

Gentoo's "emerge" (https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Portage#emerge) offers a
Sure would be handy if one could optionally have ports that failed to upgrade
blacklisted (for that version only), so that “port upgrade” could still do

You can try sudo port upgrade outdated and not
or
sudo port upgrade outdated and not and not rdependentof:
(not sure of the exact syntax, here)
To ignore a port and its recursive dependencies…
