Disappeared without uninstalling the program

Hello everyone, my name is Pino, I live in Salerno, Italy and sorry for my English.

I have a home server with version 8.0, and once a week the cron maintenance scripts launch portaudit to find packages that pose a risk.

Subsequently with
Code: 
portmanager-s | grep "OLD"
I check the packages to be updated, then the result is emailed to me. The last time (June 23) what happened is that bash was gone in the application list
Code: 
pkg_info
and I had to install it. Even running the command
Code: 
which bash
did not find the program.

- Without an express command like make deinstall or pkg_delete you can uninstall a program?
- Where can I find the record or the list of uninstalled programs?
- Does portaudit disable / uninstall a program because of a security risk?

Thanks for answers.

Good day.
 
Sure, most files can be removed with rm(1). If the file was installed from a port or package, it can be deleted but would still show in the port/package database.

portaudit only notifies of problems, it does not deinstall ports.

Occasionally, a port update program deinstalls a port as part of upgrading it, then has an error on installing the new version.
 
Thanks.

The question I would like to understand is how the bash program is removed without my intervention.
 
Keep in mind that 8.0 isn't supported anymore. You are highly advised to upgrade to 8.2.
 
Hi
today I have the identical problem with the pkg-config .

For see the package deinstalled without the my intervention I have a script who check the list of package installed and compare with a list saved into database.

Today after the Portaudit and Portsnap , the package pkg-config-0.25_1 was removed automatically.

I have established who the package has been deleted from ports and has been replaced pkgconf-0.8.5 .

The my question is if there is a chance to see the date of cancellation of the package from ports .

I have not made ​​a thorough search and saw that the file /usr/ports/UPDATING, contains the packages, but the list is that of the already substituted or replaced?

If this information is not available , maybe it would not be necessary to include them in pkg_info?

Thank you and good day.
 
Thanks for your help,

In fact I find it devel/pkg-config|devel/pkgconf|2012-07-26|pkg-config has been replace by pkgconf

If you do not want too much, I wanted to know if it was possible to know in advance which ports are to be deleted.
 
csup and read /usr/ports/UPDATING; /usr/ports/MOVED before portsnap? (Search the forum for how to use csup via command-line and a supfile...)
