Port Reclaim

[Christopher Jones]

Run

 > port list requested

and check everything you expect to be there is. If not, manually set it as requested yourself

> sudo port setrequested  XYZ

port reclaim will not remove anything in the above list, or anything in the dependency tree of something in that list. Anything else is fair game to remove.
