So be quite frank, I have no idea! I think I followed all instructions
quite litterally. But portupgrade was mentioned in the handbook and the
"cookbook" examples I found on the web differed somewhat. I no longer
remembered if I did a 'pkgdb -Uu' or not.

I there any telltale signs showing in the narrative in my first post that
indicates I forgot it? Is it recommendable I run it now then?
