You understand that the doc-all collection downloads into /usr/doc,
and it contains the SGML source that gets processed into the HTML or
other formats the Handbook is available in? You will have to 'cd
/usr/doc ; make install' before anything will appear in
/usr/share/doc.

Current versions of portupgrade(1) will run 'portsdb -u' automatically
if they detect that it is necessary -- ie. if the INDEX file is newer
than INDEX.db. But don't let that stop you running it by hand if
that's what pleases you.
Cheers,
Matthew
