I sent this to the list about a week ago.  The only response so far, was from
someone else also having directory path issues with pkg_fetch.  Is this
someting documented somewhere? If so, would someone please send me a pointer
on how to correct this behaviour?

========================================================
It seems that 'portupgrade -P' won't ever get a package, so it builds from
source every time.

On investigation, it seems that pkg_fetch is getting the directory path
wrong.

In the example below, the correct path would have included
'packages-4-stable', not 'packages-4.6-stable', at least that's how the
directory structure on the ftp sites are.
