Ports are rebuilt on the system as the pre-built ports
have options selected that do not match the requirements
of the system. It takes a week or more to rebuild
everything, which why I'm concerned with the bogus
warning and whether 'pkg bootstrap -f' would rebuild
everything.
I also do
% cd /usr/ports
% svn update
% make fetchindex
% pkg audit -qF
before I build any port. That third step pulls down
the INDEX-14, which again leads to confusion when pkg
issues a warning about 13.
