Ah yes, portinstall, you got me there. :-)

Which, incidentally, is a component of my favorite third-party system
utility, PortUpgrade.

Which reminds me of another handy thing about the ports system which
is 'pkg_info'.  Ever wonder where that program came from that is out
on your system?  What package or port did it come from?

  % pkg_info -W /usr/local/sbin/portinstall
  /usr/local/sbin/portinstall was installed by package portupgrade-2.1.3.3_1,2

Nice!
