Ele so errou no comando.
"This will display a list of all ports that are unmaintained".
O correto na frase seria "This will display a list of all INSTALED ports
that are unmaintained"
Ja que o comando so lista os ports que estao instalados no seu sistema,
ou seja, aqueles que voce entrou no dir e deu make install (que viraram
pacotes e portanto sao listados via pkg_info.
Alguem chuta como ficaria o comando correto?
