The list of ports that need to be updated on a system are given by:
pkg query '%o %B' | awk '/libgcrypt\.so/{print $1}'
But with proper revision bumps no special instructions are needed
at all, so I'd rather do that and remove the instructions.
A problem with that pkg query is that it doesn't necessarily print
ports in the right order. Dependencies of a port need to be updated
before that port.
