>Description:
	Portupgrade does not force upgrades by package if the packages needs to
 be remotely (i.e. from the freebsd mirrors) fetched and the installed package 
has the same version. Running portupgrade again after the package has been fetched succeeds. 

>How-To-Repeat:
 Find a package on a remote server which has the same version as the locally
 installed port and is not available in /usr/ports/packages yet. 
 Try to portupgrade it with portupgrade -PPf. portupgrade will fail to force
 the upgrade, but will fetch the package. Now run portupgrade -PPf again on the
 same port, the upgrade will succeed.
