FreeBSD 14.2 I've upgraded _`ruby 3.2`_](http://www.freshports.org/ruby 3.2 "ruby 3.2 port") to _`ruby 3.3`_](http://www.freshports.org/ruby 3.3 "ruby 3.3 port") and have also added [_`ruby33-bdb`_ and [_`ruby33-gems`_. However doing so broke _`portupgrade`_ which is now complaining about a file being missing ...

Hey everyone, I've been using FreeBSD since version 3 - started way back in the day at a company I used to work for, long before poudriere was a thing. These days, I just maintain a couple of personal servers running FreeBSD 14.1, each on a different architecture. Historically, I've kept my ports up to date using the following steps: 1. portsnap fetch update 2. portupgrade _package_ or I'd manually ` `cd /usr/ports/category/port`` and build from there when I needed specific options. I’ve always preferred building from ports because many of my packages have custom build options, so I rarely use ` `pkg install``. I've already switched to using Git for managing the ports tree, but I have a couple of questions: * Portsnap used to build the INDEX file automatically. Is it enough to run ` `make -C /usr/ports index`` after a ` `git pull``, or is there more I should be doing? * What’s the best modern replacement for portupgrade? I tried portmaster, but it ended up in a wild infinite dependency loop, rebuilding and reinstalling the same packages over and over. I let it run overnight, and it was still going in the morning. Would appreciate any help, thanks!

Every one of several dozen systems with FreeBSD 12-STABLE has been giving this warning when using portupgrade. A web search shows only one hit, and that is in an unrelated question. Back "in the old days", a `# `pkgdb -F`` would usually be all that was needed to fix this warning. But doing that now gives: Code: (0:81) hostname:/sysprog/terry# pkgdb -F pkgdb -F not supported with PKGNG yet. Use 'pkg check' directly. ` `man pkg-check`` doesn't seem to show anything relevant - it is all about fixing problems with package dependencies, not the database itself. Presumably that's the reason for the "Use 'pkg check' directly." handwave instead of specifying the actual command line needed. Any ideas?
