+  As a result of shifting from SHA-1 to SHA-256, the structure of
+  portsnap's configuration file and compressed snapshot have both
+  changed.  After upgrading to portsnap 0.9, you will have to
+  update your configuration file ($PREFIX/etc/portsnap.conf) and
+  delete your existing portsnap compressed snapshot:
+
+  	# cd /usr/local/etc && cp portsnap.conf.sample portsnap.conf
+  	# rm -r /usr/local/portsnap/*
+
+  In addition, be aware that the next runs of "portsnap fetch" and
+  "portsnap update" will take far longer than usual, since they
+  will need to download and extract a complete copy of the ports
+  tree.
