Doug, the user probably stuck to a ports/UPDATING entry, 20110823, written by gnome@ (cc'd). (Do we need to audit ports/UPDATING altogether for such misdirections?) Perhaps this behaviour could change in a future version of portmaster, in order to avoid rebuilding ports twice that depend on "both"... I've been longing for such a feature more than once and usually resorted to "update just the ports, then figure out/update dependent ports with pkg_libchk".
