A quick search of FAQ, Guide, etc. didn't turn up any advice on how best to update it, and I expect that just replacing it with the latest default may not be it.  If I replace it, do I need to force an update of all installed ports, or what? I'm concerned that just replacing it will break things, and if I need to start from scratch, I'd rather know that up front. Am I worrying needlessly? Any pointers?
