This is weird! A program that is supposed to show the *status* of

I agree that is not clear why it is removing ports without warning.
I consider this
a severe bug. Luckily, this was on a server system where X11 is not
crucial. I really don't want to imagine the hassle i would have had if
portmanager had removed exim or apache or samba or ...
I think the chances of that ever happening are pretty low - do you think any of
them would get removed from ports? The fact that xorg-manpages was being
orphaned is clearly documented in kris@ entry in ports/UPDATING.
the solution is simple, dont use that tool , at least in the form you are using
it.
Program has a bug --> don't use it. Strange logic, but at least easier
then filing a bug report ;-)
