.SH DESCRIPTION
This utility is an alternative to \fBportupgrade\fR(1) and \fBportmaster\fR(8), and designed to be suitable for reinstallation/upgrade of all packages after major version upgrade of the system or very long absence of ports upgrade, or for entire correction of confusion among installed packages.
.SH NOTATIONS
 A \fIglob\fR is an extended regular expression or a shell\-type glob pattern matching either of a unique name, package names or port origins.
 The glob syntax is compatible with \fBportupgrade\fR(1) and its accompaniments such as \fBportsdb\fR(1), \fBpkg_glob\fR(1) and \fBports_glob\fR(1).
 If a glob starts with a colon ":", the following string is parsed as an extended regular expression, and otherwise a shell\-type glob.
 A shell\-type glob is evaluated by matching an asterisk "*" to an arbitrary string of an arbitrary length, a question mark "?" to an arbitrary single character, characters "..." enclosed in a bracket "[...]" to a single character as one of the characters and characters "..." in a bracket "[!...]" to a single character matching none of the characters.
 Here, the evaluation of the bracket is actually done by passing it to an extended regular expression by simply converting the prefix "[!" to "[^".
 A glob is recognized as a unique name (package name without the version part) if no slash "/" or any special character for an extended regular expression or a shell\-type glob is included in the pattern.
 For example, all of "zip" "zip\-3.?", "zip\-*", "zip\-[0\-9]*" and ":^zip\-[[:digit:]]+\.*" can match "zip\-3.0"; "archivers/unzip*" can match both of "archivers/unzip" and "archivers/unzip\-iconv".
.SH ARGUMENTS
One of the following \fIcommands\fR can be given for optional operations or confirmation.

.TP
\fBdo all\fR
Full execution (default).
.TP
\fBprepare\fR
.PD 0
.TP
\fBdo prepare\fR
Just build (or continue to build or rebuild) the temporary database and stop before the actual operations to the ports/packages.
.TP
\fBredo\fR
.PD 0
.TP
\fBredo all\fR
Execute again for failed ports and their dependents.
.TP
\fBredo prepare\fR
Just rebuild the temporary database and stop before the actual operations for the redo process.
In case of restarting a stopped \fBredo prepare\fR process, execute by \fBprepare\fR or \fBdo prepare\fR command instead of this command.
.TP
\fBclean\fR
.PD 0
.TP
\fBclean [normal]\fR
Clean up the temporary database.
.TP
\fBclean force\fR
Clean up the temporary database without checking the privilege.
.TP
\fBreset\fR
.PD 0
.TP
\fBreset all\fR
Reset the temporary database by preserving the initial snapshot of installed packages.
This is for a rescue in case the temporary database is broken.
.TP
\fBreset keepopts\fR
Reset the temporary database by preserving the initial snapshot of installed packages and option settings.
This is for a rescue in case the temporary database is broken.
.TP
\fBok add\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Register manually resolved ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
.TP
\fBok del\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
deregister manually resolved ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
.TP
\fBtaboo add\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Register taboo ports that must not be built or newly (re)installed.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
Registration to be "taboo" practically invalidates "necessary" registered by \fBnoneed add\fR command.
Ports specified in the HOLD section in the configuration file are protected from deinstallation.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
This functionality is intended to avoid manually deinstalled ports because of confliction or ports whose build or installation operations can damage the system, e.g., by flooding the file systems or kernel panic.
This command is for temporal definitions and permanent definitions should be given as TABOO_* values in ${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf instead.
.TP
\fBtaboo del\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Deregister taboo ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
.TP
\fBneed add\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Register necessary ports that should be newly installed if not yet and kept installed even if being obsolete.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
Registration to be "necessary" takes priority over "unnecessary" registered by \fBnoneed add\fR command.
In other words, the registered ports are excluded from deinstallation candidates if they are obsolete, leaf or not-initially-installed ports, and otherwise have no effect on the actual operations.
.TP
\fBneed del\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Deregister necessary ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
The deregistered ports are added to leaf port candidates if they are not initially installed.
In this case, information on the deregistered ports remain until removal by \fBforget\fR command.
.TP
\fBnoneed add\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Register unnecessary ports that should be deinstalled unless required by other non\-leaf ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
In other words, the registered ports are added to leaf ports if they have no non\-leaf dependent, and otherwise have no effect on the actual operations.
Requirements of the registered ports are also recognized as leaves if all of their dependents are leaves.
Ports specified in the HOLD section in the configuration file are protected.
For example, just after installing new ports due to \fBneed add\fR command or \fB\-i\fR option as requirements of a specified target, registering only the target will let the all required ports be leaves as well as the target.
Actually deinstalled ports are selected via dialog together with the original leaf ports.
.TP
\fBnoneed del\fR \fIglob1\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Deregister unnecessary ports.
The port globs are separated from each other by comma or space.
.TP
\fBreselect leaves\fR
Reselect leaf ports to delete.
This command is effective only after the temporary database is once built.
.TP
\fBreselect obsolete\fR
Reselect obsolete ports to delete.
This command is effective only after the temporary database is once built.
.TP
\fBsave\fR [\fIdir\fR]
Save the current temporary database as a .tar.gz archive.
The file name is created automatically by containing the current date time.
By default save directory is the current directory.
.TP
\fBload\fR \fIpath\fR
Load a temporary database archive.
Note that the currently temporary database is removed.
.TP
\fBglob\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Evaluate port globs and show matched origins both for installed and uninstalled packages.
.TP
\fBoptions\fR
Show saved option settings and expected effects of option-resetting options \fB\-L\fR, \fB\-M\fR and \fB\-N\fR.
With \fB\-a\fR option, the first, second and third columns denote the option-resetting options, reset options and remaining options, respectively.
.TP
\fBreconf\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Reconfigure port options for the specified ports and reset their information in the temporary database.
.TP
\fBforget\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Try to let the temporary database forget about the specified ports as much as possible.
Concretely, the data on each of the specified ports and their requirements/dependents is unless initially installed or required by other preserved ports.
This command is mainly for removing information on ports which had been added due to \fB\-i\fR option or \fBneed add\fR command but have become unneeded again.
In advance to executing this command, deinstallation for the specified ports should be completed by \fBnoneed add\fR command followed by \fBredo\fR command.
It is noted that ports registered by \fBok\fR, \fBtaboo\fR and \fBnoneed\fR commands are NOT deleted.
Internal tables used for \fBshow\fR command keep their information regardless of this command.
.TP
\fBescape\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Back up and delete packages specified by \fIglobs\fR for a temporary escape mainly for resolving undeclared conflicts.
The escaped packages are registered as taboo as same as \fBtaboo add\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...].
.TP
\fBrestore\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...]
Restore packages specified by \fIglobs\fR escaped by \fBescape\fR command.
The escaped packages are deregistered from taboo as same as \fBtaboo del\fR \fIglob\fR [\fIglob2\fR ...].
.TP
\fBshow\fR [\fIsubject\fR] [@[\fBrun\fR|\fBbuild\fR|\fBall\fR][,[\fBdirect\fR|\fBfull\fR]]] [\fIarguments\fR]
Show the list of ports to be reinstalled.
The applied scope of dependencies can be controlled by "show option" proceeded by "@"; \fBrun\fR, \fBbuild\fR and \fBall\fR employ the run-time, build-time or both-time ones, respectively; \fBdirect\fR and \fBfull\fR include only the direct or fully recursive ones, respectively.
The default scope is determined by the saved option settings for \fB\-B\fR, \fB\-b\fR and \fB\-o\fR.
Some \fIsubject\fR's require \fIarguments\fR.
The following \fIsubject\fR's are available.

Suppress entire inspection of distinfo files in the ports tree as a preparation for deleting obsolete distfiles.
By default, viz., without this option, all distfiles are preserved unless being obsolete in the current version of the ports tree.
For this purpose, entire inspection of distinfo files in the ports tree is carried out in order to get the complete list of distfiles.
This inspection can take an extremely long time if the ports tree is located in file systems with low access speeds.
With this option specified, distfiles for ports are deleted unless they are initially installed, added due to \fB\-i\fR option, or required by any of the installed or added ports.

\fB\-\-use\-prebuilt\-package\fR
Use prebuilt packages for ports with the default configurations, i.e., that no part option is changed from the default, no knob (make environment variable or make argument) is defined, and no replacement or update is made to required ports.
The actual merit of this option depends on the service levels and qualities of the remote package sites; As of May, 2013, the official sites have provided legacy packages only for each release timing and pkgng packages for only three ports (ports-mgmt/pkg, ports-mgmt/poudriere and ports-mgmt/poudriere-devel); thus this option is useful for new installation and otherwise not so effective.
This option can be inconvenient for ports whose dependencies on other packages, files or other system-specific values are automatically arranged during the build or installation processes by detection outside of control by port options, knobs or ports replacement.
This problem can be resolved by configuring NOPKG_* section in ${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf.

Inspection of dependencies is made within the least-required scope for (re)installing the targets.
If given with \fB\-O\fR, targets themselves and their missing direct build-time requirements are in the scope.
If given with \fB\-T\fR, targets themselves, their direct requirements and their missing direct build-time requirements are in the scope.
If given with \fB\-t\fR, targets themselves, their already-inspected dependents and their missing direct build-time requirements are in the scope.
Ports outside of the scopes are kept untouched even if they are updated.
It is noted that this option disables detection and deinstallation of new leaf ports.
This option will be useful for quick upgrades or new installation (only) before complete construction of the temporary database for the all installed ports.

.SH DETAILS
.SS Overview
This utility is a ports/packages management tool which upgrades packages to be as much as consistent regarding their dependencies by allowing repetitional retrials called "redo runs".
The implementation of this utility is designed for smart entire reinstallation of installed packages which takes a very long time.
A temporary database is used for managing the starting point, intermediate status and goal of the upgrade processes.
The starting point is determined by the initially installed packages.
The intermediate status contains various information on successes and failures of ports to judge the necessity of upgrade considering dependencies during \fBredo\fR runs.
The goal is determined by the ports tree, replacement to compatible ports and configurations for each port, i.e., port options configured by \fBmake config\fR and knobs (make environment variables and make arguments).
In order to make this utility work smartly, knob should be defined in ${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf (or \fBpkgtools.conf\fR(5) if \fBportupgrade\fR(1) is installed) but not in /etc/make.conf
The temporary database is available until the ports tree is updated.
Each port is built for its (re)installation in principle, however, \fB\-G\fR option enables a function that use of prebuilt packages in remote servers are attempted for each port matching a condition that all configurations of the port and its requirements are unchanged from the default.

The algorithms of this utility are originally optimized for massive reinstallation to be invoked after major upgrade of the system where reinstallation of all third\-party applications is encouraged before cleaning up obsolete system libraries.
Nevertheless, the all functionalities of this utility is applicable to any situations where complete reinstallation is preferred for the whole or typical packages, e.g., when you have been lazy in upgrade of ports for a too long time.
.PP
In a standard case, the entire reinstallation will proceed in the following step:
.TP
1.
Update the ports tree and (in case of pkgng) the pkgng repository catalog;
.PD
.TP
2.
Clean up a temporary database which stores the all information used for the whole task of reinstallation (first \fBdo\fR or \fBprepare\fR run);
.PD
.TP
3.
Record the snapshot of the all installed packages as the initial point of reinstallation (first \fBdo\fR or \fBprepare\fR run);
.PD
.TP
4.
Build up the database to store data on configurations and dependencies (which may depend on the configurations) of the all (re/de)installing packages to be the latest version according to the current ports tree (\fBdo\fR or \fBprepare\fR run);
.PD
.TP
5.
Select obsolete packages or new leaf ports/packages to deinstall or exclude if any (\fBdo\fR or \fBprepare\fR run);
.PD
.TP
6.
Execute the actual (re/de)installation (\fBdo\fR run);
.PD
.TP
7.
If some ports failed, retry the (re/de)installation for the failed ones and their dependents (\fBredo\fR run);
.PD
.TP
8.
Make modification to the temporary database or manually re/de-install packages in concern (\fBok\fR, \fBtaboo\fR, \fBnoneed\fR, etc.).
.PD
.TP
9.
Repeat from 6 to 7 until the all available ports succeed.
.PD
.PP
A typical instance of actually executed commands for upgrading packages will be in the following flow:
.TP
1.
.B portsnap fetch update
.PD
.TP
2.
.B pkg update
.RS
(In case of pkgng)
.RE
.PD
.TP
3.

.PP
Here, in case of entire reinstallation after a major version upgrade of the operating system, \fB\-q\fR option should be removed.
It is usually encouraged to execute the command on \fBscript\fR(1) in order to record the make outputs for catching reasons of failures if any.
In many cases, the user may undergo failures in build or installation of some ports during do/redo runs.
Refer to subsections entitled "Workaround for failed ports: ..." for the techniques and procedures to resolve the problems.
.PP
This utility is implemented to be flexible and robust about interrupt/restart operations so as to allow the users to run only when the machine is free and terminate when it becomes busy on demand.
Concretely, the users can stop the process by CTRL+C (or even by unexpected termination) and restart from the stopped point at any stage throughout the whole task, i.e., from the beginning of preparation of the temporary database to the end of (re/de)installation.
This functionality allows the users, for example, to start this utility before lunch, terminate after lunch, restart before dinner, terminate after dinner, restart before going to bed, terminate after breakfast, restart before lunch, ..., and finally complete.
.PP
Compatibility with \fBportupgrade\fR(1) is well considered if it is installed; settings in \fBpkgtools.conf\fR(5) are reflected and the portupgrade database is updated at the end of each do/redo run.
The main difference of this utility with \fBportupgrade\fR(1) or \fBportmaster\fR(8) is that this utility is optimized for on\-the\-fly entire upgrade of the packages environment to be as complete as possible while the latter are for partial upgrade to get the latest versions available as quickly as possible by applying the least "patches" to the environment.
While this utility also has options for partial upgrade (\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-T\fR and \fB\-O\fR), they are intended as auxiliary modification of (re)installing packages.
This utility resolves conflicts between old and new packages automatically by referring to CONFLICTS, CONFLICTS_BUILD and CONFLICTS_INSTALL defined for each port or by redo processes for ports missing appropriate definition of them.
Many of the UPDATING advisories on trouble shooting in packages upgrade will be unnecessary to follow if the users use this utility instead of \fBportupgrade\fR(1) or \fBportmaster\fR(8).
.PP
If this utility has been installed by ports/packages and the corresponding port is renewed, upgrade of this utility is carried out first and then the following processes are continued by the new version after cleaning up the temporary database.
.PP
New leaf ports (primary leaves) and their exclusive requirements (secondary leaves) are automatically detected.
The user may specify unneeded ports explicitly by \fBportsreinstall noneed\fR command so that the specified ports are added to the new leaves if they have no non-leaf dependents.
If any leaf ports are detected, the user is prompted to select ones to delete by dialog.
Similarly, obsolete ports to delete are also selectable by dialog.
Here, both for leaf and obsolete ports, the selection can be modified afterward and unselected ones can be restored by following redo runs.
.PP
The scheme of this utility is divided into stages of temporary database construction and actual (re/de)installation.
Execution by
.B portsreinstall prepare
procedes to the end the first stage, and that without any argument procedes to the end of the second stage.
Each of these two major stages is divided into minor stages.
When a previously terminated process is restarted, completed minor stages are skipped.
Changes of the configurations made or notified by corresponding options or commands of this utility are reflected to the database by automatically re-executing the concerned stages in the following do/redo runs.
.PP
When option(s) \fB\-O\fR, \fB\-t\fR or \fB\-T\fR is/are specified, only the targets and their requirements or dependents within the specified scope are inspected and (re/de)installed.
Inspected data on the ports are preserved in the temporary database and reused in the following runs even if the targets are reset or changed with aid of \fB\-N\fR option.
The preserved data are basically harmless even if the corresponding ports are out of scope of new targets unless conflicts arise.
.SS New installation of ports: case 1
If the user has not executed this utility for entire reinstallation/upgrade never or after the final clean up of the temporary database,
.RS
.B portsreinstall -i -Glq -oO
.I globs
.RE
will be a quick way to install new packages matching glob patters \fIglobs\fR (here the options are separated into each group just for easy understanding).
More automated operation is possible by appending \fB\-C\fR and \fB\-Y\fR options so as to skip all dialog queries by letting all configurations default.
.SS New installation of ports: case 2
If the user already has a complete temporary database by executing entire reinstallation/upgrade,
.RS
.B portsreinstall need add
.I globs
.RE
followed by
.RS
.B portsreinstall -MGlq -N redo
.RE
will be a quick and smart way to install new packages matching glob patters \fIglobs\fR.
More automated operation is possible by appending \fB\-C\fR and \fB\-Y\fR options so as to skip all dialog queries by letting all configurations default.
.SS Deinstallation and restoration of leaf and obsolete ports
If any new leaf ports and obsolete (lost) ports are detected, dialogs are displayed for selecting which ports/packages to delete.
Here it is noted that detection and operations on new leaf ports are invalidated when the temporary database is incomplete due to \fB\-o\fR option.
Deinstallation and restoration of the packages are carried out after reinstallation of the all ports are attempted.
The selected packages are backed up before deinstallation.
.PP
The selection can be modified by executing
.RS
.B portsreinstall reselect leaves
.RE
for new leaf ports, and
.RS
.B portsreinstall reselect obsolete
.RE
for obsolete ports.
.PP
Then following execution of
.RS
.B portsreinstall
.RE
deinstalls newly selected packages and restores unselected ones.
.SS Workaround for failed ports: conflicts: case 1
This utility automatically resolves conflicts between ports/packages by temporary deinstallation during concerned build or installation processes according to CONFLICTS, CONFLICTS_BUILD and CONFLICTS_INSTALL defined by each port.
This means that ports lacking proper CONFLICTS, CONFLICTS_BUILD and CONFLICTS_INSTALL definitions may undergo failures.
Some of the undeclared conflicts may be resolved by simple redo runs.
.PP
Some problems may be due to coexistence of the same or related software of different versions of the requirements or the unsuccessful ports themselves.
For analysis of the upgraded and initial requirements,
.RS
\fBportsreinstall show requirements @all,direct \fR \fIglob\fR
.RE
and
.RS
\fBportsreinstall show initrequirements @all,direct\fR \fIglob\fR
.RE
can be used, respectively, where \fIglob\fR denotes a glob specifying the unsuccessful ports.
For analysis of ports for the same software of different versions,
.RS
\fBportsreinstall glob\fR \fIglob_req\fR
.RE
can be used, where \fIglob_req\fR denotes a glob specifying the suspicious requirements.
.PP
If a conflict is found, first escape (back up and delete) the conflict by
.RS
\fBportsreinstall escape\fR \fIpackage_conflict\fR
.RE
where \fIpackage_conflict\fR is the conflicting package.
.RS
.PP
Then execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall redo
.RE
for completing (re)installation of the dependents of the resolved port.
.PP
If the (re)installation is successful, execute
.RS
\fBportsreinstall restore\fR \fIpackage_conflict\fR
.RE
to restore the escaped package (reinstallation may fail if a newer version is installed but there is no problem).
If any conflicts still remain unresolved, refer to case 2.
.SS Workaround for failed ports: conflicts: case 2
If some upgraded ports fundamentally conflict with each other, the output log of this utility for do/redo processes will report a message entitled "The following ports are temporarily deleted due to conflicts".
In this case, although not always encouraged, the user may consider replacement of the conflicting ones with one of them by assuming and expecting compatibility between them.
.PP
This workaround can be done by the following procedure.
First edit the configuration file ${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf so as to define the corresponding REPLACE_* values.
If \fBportupgrade\fR(1) is installed, the corresponding configuration should be made in ALT_PKGDEP section of \fBpkgtools.conf\fR(5).
.PP
Then execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall -L redo
.RE
.RS
(Recover options reset by \fB\-L\fR if any by checking with the aid of \fBportsreinstall options\fR.)
.RE
for (re)installation of the concerned port by reflecting the configuration changes.
.SS Workaround for failed ports: conflicts: case 3
If some conflicts are found to be unnecessary, they can be removed in the following way.
The unnecessary ports are registered by executing
.RS
.B portsreinstall noneed add
.I globs_unnecessary
.RE
where \fIglobs_unnecessary\fR denotes globs specifying the unnecessary ports.
.PP
Next execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall show dependents @run,full
.I globs_unnecessary
.RE
for checking whether any dependents seem unnecessary for the user.
Next execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall noneed add
.I globs_unnecessary_dependents
.RE
to register them, where \fIglobs_unnecessary_dependents\fR denotes globs specifying the unnecessary dependents.
.PP
Then execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall
.RE
.RS
(If it seems effective, reconfigure options for \fB\-B\fR, \fB\-b\fR and \fB\-o\fR by using \fB\-M\fR and \fB\-N\fR.)
.RE
for automatic evaluation and deinstallation of new leaf ports redefined by the new unnecessary ports.
If the registered ports are required by any non-leaf or non-unnecessary ports, this process will end up with no practical progress.
.SS Workaround for failed ports: reconfiguration of port options
.PP
If the problems may be resolved by reconfiguration of the port options, execute
.B portsreinstall reconf 
.I glob
which invokes the dialog for reselecting options.
Here \fIglob\fR denotes a glob specifying the concerned port.
.PP
If any change was made here, execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall
.RE
for retrial of (re)installation.
.SS Workaround for failed ports: reconfiguration of knobs
If the problems may be resolved by reconfiguration of the knobs, first edit the configuration file ${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf so as to redefine the corresponding MARG_*, MENV_*, BEFOREBUILD_*, BEFOREDEINSTALL_* or AFTERINSTALL_* values.
If \fBportupgrade\fR(1) is installed, the corresponding configuration should be made in MAKE_ARGS, MAKE_ENV, BEFOREBUILD, BEFOREDEINSTALL or AFTERINSTALL section of \fBpkgtools.conf\fR(5).
.PP
Then execute
.RS
.B portsreinstall -L redo
.RE
.RS
(Recover options reset by \fB\-L\fR if any by checking with the aid of \fBportsreinstall options\fR.)
.RE
for (re)installation of the concerned port by reflecting the configuration changes.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
The following environment variables can be used to change the behavior of \fBportsreinstall\fR.
Some of them are the same as defined in \fBports\fR(7).
Usually they should be kept to be the system default or empty.
The configuration file (${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf) takes priority over environment variables.
.TP
.B LOCALBASE
Where to install files of native applications.
The default is /usr/local.
.TP
.B LINUXBASE
Where to install files of Linux applications.
The default is /compat/linux.
.TP
.B PREFIX
Where to install things in general.
The default value is defined for each port; it is usually ${LOCALBASE} for most native applications and ${LINUXBASE} for Linux applications.
However, some ports customize it to their own defaults, e.g., ${LOCALBASE}/kde4 for KDE4-related ones.
Therefore, it is safer to keep this variable undefined by the user so as to define it automatically although traditionally this variable has been used for controlling installation paths by users.
.TP
.B PORT_DBDIR
Where to store port option values.
The default is /var/db/ports.
.TP
.B PORTSDIR
Location of the ports tree.
The default is /usr/ports.
.TP
.B DISTDIR
Where to store distfiles.
The default is ${PORTSDIR}/distfiles.
.TP
.B PACKAGES
Where to store package archives.
The default is ${PORTSDIR}/packages.
.TP
.B PKGREPOSITORYSUBDIR
Subdirectory under ${PACKAGES} to store substances of package archives.
The default is "All".
.TP
.B PKGREPOSITORY
Where to store substances of package archives.
The default is ${PACKAGES}/${PKGREPOSITORYSUBDIR}.
.TP
.B PKG_PATH
Overriding Synonym to PKGREPOSITORY for compatibility with \fBpkgtools.conf\fR(5).
.TP
.B PACKAGECHECKSUMROOTS
Roots of available sites for legacy package check sum to be randomly selected.
Each site is separated by "|" (vertical bar).
The default consists of ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/ and from ftp://ftp1.FreeBSD.org/ to ftp://ftp14.FreeBSD.org/.
.TP
.B PACKAGECHECKSUMDIR
Subdirectory pattern of legacy package check sum sites.
The first and second \fI%s\fR are substituted with the platform and version of OS, respectively.
The default is pub/FreeBSD/ports/%s/packages-%s/All/.
.TP
.B PACKAGEROOTS
Roots of available legacy package sites to be randomly selected.
Each site is separated by "|" (vertical bar).
The default is ${PACKAGECHECKSUMROOTS}, but it is relatively secure to be different from it.
.TP
.B PACKAGEDIR
Subdirectory pattern of legacy package sites.
The first and second \fI%s\fR are substituted with the platform and version of OS, respectively.
The default is ${PACKAGECHECKSUMDIR}.
.SH FILES/DIRECTORIES
The following files and directories are referred to.
.TP
${LOCALBASE}/etc/portsreinstall.conf
Configuration file.
.TP
/var/tmp/portsreinstall.db
Temporal database directory.
The whole contents can be saved by \fBportsreinstall save\fR command.
.TP
${LOCALBASE}/etc/pkgtools.conf
Configuration file of \fBportupgrade\fR(1).
.SH HISTORY
\fBportsreinstall\fR has been developed as below.
.TP
3.0.1 (? June 2013)
[NEW] Commands \fBescape\fR and \fBrestore\fR are added.

[IMPROVED] The behavior of \fB\-C\fR option is changed in case of \fBdialog4ports\fR(1) so that the port options are unchanged and unsaved throughout the all stages from the temporary database build to (re)installation. This allows the all stages to run on \fBscript\fR(1) and \fBnohup\fR(1).

[IMPROVED] Changes are made so that installation by packages is split into fetch and installation stages and backup/restoration of old packages are skipped if the fetch is unsuccessful.

[IMPROVED] Changes are made so that uninspected ports are skipped in \fBreconf\fR command.

[IMPROVED] Correspondence to cases of duplicated packages for the same port is implemented.

[BUG FIX] Commands permitted for unprivileged users did not work for the users.

[BUG FIX] This manual page, comments and messages contained some wrong English words and incorrect descriptions.

[BUG FIX] Runs by unprivileged users could end up with errors in message output if /dev/stdin cannot provide information of the console size.

[BUG FIX] Meaningless warnings are suppressed.

[BUG FIX] Leaf ports replaced by REPLACE_* were recognized to be new leaf ports to delete even if they are targets of \fB\-O\fR, \fB\-T\fR or \fB\-t\fR or in the needed list.

.SH APPENDIX: Conditions determining the package system (general specification of FreeBSD Ports/Packages)
The current package system is automatically detected according to the OS version whose serial number is obtained by
.RS
.B sysctl -n kern.osreldate
.RE
and the configuration of /etc/make.conf.
Pkgng is supported for systems with serial numbers of 800505 (just before 8.1-RELEASE) or later.
For systems of 1000017 (10-CURRENT) or later, Pkgng is the default.
.PP
In order to choose pkgng in systems from 800505 (just before 8.1-RELEASE) to just before 1000017 (10-CURRENT), put
.RS
.B WITH_PKGNG=yes
.RE
in /etc/make.conf.

In order to choose the legacy one in systems of 1000017 (10-CURRENT) or later, put
.RS
.B WITHOUT_PKGNG=yes
