 Note that if you have specified variants which are not the default, you may need to install ports in an order other than the alphabetical order recorded in `myports.txt`.

-=== Automatic method === #automatic
-
-As of MacPorts 1.8.0, you can alternatively try an automated rebuild of all installed ports for your new platform using these steps:
-
- 1. Uninstall the gawk, grep, and gsed ports (if installed), as many build systems will try to use them even if there is no dependency:
-{{{
-sudo port -f uninstall installed and \( gawk grep gsed perl5 perl5.8 perl5.10 \)
-}}}
- 2. Reinstall all installed ports:
-{{{
-sudo port upgrade --force installed
-}}}
- 3. If MacPorts has not already reinstalled them, you can now reinstall any of the ports removed in step 1, if desired.
-
-Note that this method may sometimes fail if the dependency relationships declared by the ports are not completely accurate, or if ports other than gawk/grep/gsed are used opportunistically. If you encounter such a problem, please report it so we can fix it.
