I use the pkg_version -c method as well-- it seems so much simpler than
portupgrade, but am I missing something and/or running the risk of
breaking things?
FWIW I think that keeping your ports/packages up-to-date could be
covered better in the Handbook, considering how important it is in terms
of security. There's no mention of either portupgrade or pkg_version in
the ports/packages coverage.
