Thanks for your hint to porttree, however, on my system:

# pkg install porttree                        
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
The following 3 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked):

New packages to be INSTALLED:
        porttree: 0.3.r52
        py27-networkx: 1.8.1
        openssl: 1.0.2_1

The process will require 18 MiB more space.
4 MiB to be downloaded.

Proceed with this action? [y/N]: N

What is wrong with my system? Why does porttree need port openssl as
well. It is obviosuly wrong. If I build ports-mgmt/porttree from
source, there is not dependency from port openssl. Might there be
something wrong with my package database? How can I fix?

I will answer tomorrow to other aspects of your latest posts.
