pkmanager: http://www.scode.org/pkgmanager/ Quote from homepage: There is currently only one method (to my knowledge) of updating packages in in pkgsrc - using make update (which is what pkg_chk -u does aswell). Unfortunately, it will begin by removing all packages that require the package being updated. [...] pkgmanager attempts to alleviate these problems by upgrading all packages "in place" without needing to remove all packages that require the package being upgraded.
