That won't work, the man page clearly says that it has to be a port
directory or glob pattern from /var/db/pkg. The "glob pattern" bit of
that was (unfortunately) broken up till version 2.20, which I just
committed.

The * at the end of that is not necessary. In fact, portmaster strips it
off before creating the actual pattern to feed to find. The current
version of the instructions are correct. The - at the end of png is not
strictly necessary, but it will serve to disambiguate the port name if
there exists a pngfoo-1.23.
