Does running ``# portupgrade -arRp '' prompt for options or updates
everything without prompts?

Dear all,
I was running FreeBSD 8.1 and am in the process of updating it
following advice in handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html
ran
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
# portupgrade -af
# freebsd-update -r 8.2-RELEASE upgrade
then
# freebsd-update install
Tried to do this:
# portupgrade -f ruby
# rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db
# portupgrade -f ruby18-bdb
# rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db /usr/ports/INDEX-*.db
# portupgrade -af
Did not work correctly[too many customizations] and Tried again
# freebsd-update install
and had nothing more to do :(
I had many packages that need to be updated so I am running :
# portupgrade -arRp
will this prompt me for customizations?
Thanks in advance/advice/suggestions. I am taking the plunge a little
further. Before I just installed and left it alone :( [except for a
few packages that I wanted and ran/installed via ports ], now I am
trying to learn more and setup the firewall. I set up the simple
example setup by Polytropon and most is working. My freebsd version
has moved to FreeBSD 8.2
