| + | |||
| + | == Batch upgrade all ports == | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | portmaster -G -a | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Check all ports dependecies == | ||

| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | portmaster -y --check-depends | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Check ports database == | ||
| + | |||
| + | This checks for any ports that the database says are installed, but are not. | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | portmaster -y --check-port-dbdir | ||
| + | </code> | ||
