Regarding the recent python changes... UPDATING states:
  After upgrading of lang/python, you must rebuild all its consumer
  ports to make them get ready to Python 2.5.

  To do this, you will need to:
    pkgdb -uf && cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages


Please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't these instructions rely on
pkgdb which is a component of portupgrade which I do not use.
# pkgdb -uf && cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
pkgdb: Command not found.

So must I install portupgrade?
Or should I just ignore the error run make upgrade-site-packages ?
