Hello!

I am using portmanager for updating my ports. I love its -p switch. Is
there any similar program with such option? I am asking because portmanager
is gone from ports tree.

"   -p or --pristine        Updates a port if any dependency in it's
                                /var/db/pkg/{port name}/+CONTENTS does not
                                match what is installed. The effect is when
a
                                port is updated, any port who uses the
updated
                                port in it's dependency chain, no matter how
                                deep, are rebuilt. Normally only ports one
                                level up are rebuilt."
