Solved List of the latest upgraded ports and/or packages?

[piggy]

How can I obtain, if it is possible to obtain it somewhere in some log file, such a list?

I explan, I do build and maintain my systems with Portmaster, then it creates packages, so maybe there is a way to obtain such a list?

Thank you for any help.

... is possible to obtain it somewhere in some log file ...

From portmaster(8)

To    log actions taken by portmaster    along with a date/time stamp you can
     define PM_LOG in your rc file with    the full path of the file you would
     like to log to.

rc file: /usr/local/etc/portmaster.rc.sample Rename to portmaster.rc

Thank you. Nothing to do for the past? Pkg do not let traces of installed packages lists?

Assuming lang/perl5.30 is installed, the following command will give you a list of all installed packages sorted after installation time, newest first, oldest last, in the format %a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y filename-version_number.

pkg query '%t %n-%v' | sort -r | perl -pe 's/(\d+)/localtime($1)/e'

For details see pkg-query(8) (or pkg help query), strftime(3), sort(1),
perl(1), localtime(3).

For future use an alias can be set.

Thank you to both T-Daemon and Sir Dice. I didn't noticed they were there, my bad! Maybe becouse that files is cluttered with any type of infos and network logs too, so network logs are always very dense considering all those machines are in a domain.

Then, like you said, with a simple filter like for example:

# cat /var/log/messages | grep deinstalled

You can get all the deinstalled packages! And you can work with all type of pipes and get most of what you want.

Then I think the T-Daemon script I saved in an executable and put in the path, it is great and exactly what can fit the bill and exactly what I was looking for.

# pkg query '%t %n-%v' | sort -r | perl -pe 's/(\d+)/localtime($1)/e' | less
