Dear all, Some time ago I installed the port security/py-backports.ssl_match_hostname. Today I updated the ports tree by running portsnap fetch update and then executed portmaster to update all ports. This didn't work, however, and portmaster stopped with the following error: ===>>> The security/py-backports.ssl_match_hostname port has been deleted: This functionality was backported to python 2.7.9 ===>>> Aborting update Now I would like to delete security/py-backports.ssl_match_hostname but there is no such port in the ports tree anymore. Is there any other way to delete this port apart from checking out an old version of the port tree that still has this port in it, then delete it, and only then update? Moritz
