Hi, I'm using ports with pkgng enabled. But I found that portmaster won't work. Is there any way to update ports? Thanks! Sincerely, Mike Manilone
Read the pkgng faq online. There's a link to a patch for portmaster, and info on what to add to make.conf.

Thanks! >Since no one asked: Why would you want to do it this way? If you are using pkgng updating is as easy as: pkg upgrade. If you have some programs installed not available from official pkgng repositories you are on "thin ice" and should consider using something like ports-mgmt/poudriere to build pkgng packages of those ports and host your own repo from which you can then install them. As others already said: pkgng is drastically different from previous package management, so they do should not be used in parallel. Best regards Andreas
