While the new package system is great, I still have some issues.
I installed ports-mgmt/pkgng latest version 1.2.6 on my 9.2 i386 system, managed to convert all the old ports that was installed to the new ports-mgmt/pkgng system.
After this I upgraded to FreeBSD 10.0 i386 using
Now to the question.
since I have > 200 packages installed, and I didn't note which ones got upgraded and which ones are needed, and
is there a force upgrade command that takes all packages ?
I'd like to do something similar to

After this I upgraded to FreeBSD 10.0 i386 using
freebsd-update -r 10.0-RELEASE upgrade
, so after the initial upgrade it tells me to reinstall all packages, alrighty, no problem with the new ports-mgmt/pkg tool. pkg upgrade
was run, and lots of packages was reinstalled. But not all packages were reinstalled. Counting one of them as databases/mysql55-server and databases/mysql55-client, which complained about a glibc++ file missing (sorry I don't remember exactly which one). Reinstalling each of these packages one at a time pkg install -f mysql55-server
did the trick.Now to the question.

I'd like to do something similar to
pkg install -f '*'
, but that just gives the output pkg: No packages matching '*' available in the repositories
