==Installed ports==
The list of ports installed on the machine can be displayed with pkg_info. Ports generally confine themselves to /usr/local. After syncing the ports collection, installed ports can be rebuilt and upgraded automatically using portupgrade(1) or the make(1) mechanism of the ports collection. Use portsclean -L to clean old, duplicate and/or orphaned shared libraries. I typically use <tt>portupgrade -uap</tt> to rebuild all ports, and make new packages as well.
