TeTeX retirement instructions?

Hi! According to the announcement back in 2013 regarding TeX:

>   teTeX-based ports and TeXLive are mutually exclusive.  This means TeXLive
>   ports cannot be installed when teTeX is already installed.  You need
>   to remove all of the TeX-related packages based on teTeX to try TeXLive.
>   Migration procedure will be announced when conversion of the port
>   dependency is completed.

The only "migration procedure" that I was later able to find was an announcement on 2014-07-23:

>   TeXLive is now the default teX provider.
>   Please remove all TeX-related packages based on teTeX.

I'm not sure this actually counts as a "migration procedure". How did other people make the transition?

I ask, because the recent upgrade of png will not proceed due to the outdated TeX ports (in particular, cm-super).

Thanks,
Ricky
