Running 9.0 Stable.
Want to completely remove all installed packages and start over and install just a few packages. I use portmaster to maintain my packages. Seems to me this is what I should do.
Reinstall portmaster and proceed from there to install the ports I need.
Does that seem correct? Am I missing any steps?

- Update the ports tree.
- Run pkg_delete
# pkg_delete -a
- Back up /usr/local/etc/
- Clean out directories
# rm -Rf /var/db/pkg/* /usr/local/* /usr/ports/distfiles/*
