 This software is a ports management tool for FreeBSD designed to be suitable
for reinstallation of all packages after major version upgrade of the system or
very long absence of ports upgrade.

 The executable command is "portsreinstall". Short and long helps are shown by
"portsreinstall -h" and "portsreinstall -H", respectively. The manual page is
shown by "man portsreinstall". The superuser privilege is required for
operations by this executable. Entire reinstallation of all installed packages
starts by execution without argument or options. The process can be interrupted
by CTRL+C at any stages and restarted from there by execution without argument
or options.

 Temporal databases are constructed under /var/tmp/portsreinstall.db,
/var/tmp/portsreinstall-chroot.db and /var/tmp/portsreinstall-upgrade.db which
must be preserved until you complete or give up the reinstallation work. The
database can be cleaned by executing "portsreinstall clean".
