This is the safest bet if you're worried about any libraries having changed version or location since it will recurse all the way up the dependency tree to include things like xorg-libraries and gtk20. If you don't want to recompile e.g. any part of xorg, add an exclusion or two: # portupgrade -fR -x xorg\* xfce\* And if you really want to only rebuild xfce-specific packages, just use a wildcard and leave out the -R flag: # portupgrade -f \*xfce\* Regards, JN
