Nope, none of those, funny as it may sound, I was going by the
"Handbook" and tried to use "portmaster", as it reported some
upgradeable 'ports'.

However, that was the first  time I launched portmaster, and it was
weird, because it kept prompting me to delete newer versions of software
than that which had been built by the portmaster session, to which I
replied 'oh, no [n]o', which was the default. 

But in the end, it seems to have not installed anything (?!). Why did it
pull in all those dependencies? Where are the binaries?
