Hi,

I'm in the middle of configuring a repeatable jail installation with some
ports - in a nutshell, I want to install from locally built packages, but
if not available locally I want to build the port myself _and_ create a
package for future repetition. To prevent remote fetching, I set the
PKG_FETCH variable to /bin/false as recommended. Here's the part I found
curious:

# portinstall -N -P -p x11-toolkits/gtk20

pkg_add: warning: package 'gtk-2.8.18_1' requires 'libxml2-2.6.24_1', but 
'libxml2-2.6.26' is installed

Note from the above that portinstall is presuming that -PP was used and
is not building the port. I can omit the '-p' and this stops the occurrence
of this error, but then I don't get a package creation and that means I'll
have to build this port from scratch every time I want to install it. I
could force package creation of all ports, but this seems wasteful when
only a few require this process. Is this a bug in portupgrade, or have I
just used a conflicting array of arguments?

cheers,
