Therefore, I'm trying to use packages as much as possible. After updating the ports tree using portsnap, portupgrade looks for packages that don't exist yet. Basically, my goal is to avoid this and have the ports tree update to a state for which packages have already been built. I apologize if I can't explain it very clearly, English isn't my native language.
