Thanks for the updated script.  I’ve updated the port and also fixed our bug tracker. Sorry about that.  

I did make a slight modification.  In the get_mports function, I switched to using /usr/libexec/mport.list | xargs which will gave a list of currently installed packages.  I also switched to using the master.db rather than index.db.  Master contains packages actually installed on the system whereas index.db is the list of packages available.  Since the user might not have updated all of their packages, it made more sense to me to report the versions installed.  Also if the user were to install a port that’s newer than the last package build, it will still work by using master.  Everything is created as a package first before getting installed in MidnightBSD so master should always match what’s installed. 

You can see the modifications in github
