| Finding if newer versions of your installed packages are in pkgsrc
|
| Install pkgtools/pkglint and run lintpkgsrc with the -i argument to
| check if your packages are up-to-date, e.g.
|
| % lintpkgsrc -i
| ...
| Version mismatch: 'tcsh' 6.09.00 vs 6.10.00
|
| You can then use make update to update the package on your system and
| rebuild any dependencies.

You could also have a look at pkgtools/pkg_chk.
