I'm pretty sure that I can give an "all clear" for version 2.5, and that both the globbing features and the old features should work as expected now. For those that are not aware, portmaster now has the ability to handle glob matches for ports in /var/db/pkg/ in a manner roughly equivalent to portupgrade. So for example you could type 'portmaster xorg-server' and have it successfully match whatever version of that port you have installed, or type 'portmaster p5' and have it update everything that matches the pattern /var/db/pkg/p5*. I'd like to thank those users who not only reported the recent bugs with "gentle grace and good humor," but were kind enough to test the fixes and let me know that they worked.
