pkgng: replacement for "portsnap -I cron update && pkg_version -vIL="

Hi,

I switched yesterday to pkgng, using the portmaster version of the directions in UPDATING. I've always had
# portsnap -I cron update && pkg_version -vIL=
in cron to email me with needed updates, but of course that is broken now. What is the proper replacement for it?

Thanks
 
Thanks. So, to be clear: portsnap is orthogonal to pkgng and safe to continue to use (with the additional change you've noted)?
 
Portsnap is only for updating the ports tree at /usr/ports, its use and the ports tree itself will stay the same whether you use PKGNG or not.
