Please try again with the version I just committed. It seems, that there
was a path through the program that just removed the passed flavor and
then proceeded to operate on the default flavor (py27 in this case).

Sorry for these problems with the port. There are so many possible cases
and it is impossible for me to achieve sufficient coverage in my tests.

But I'll try to always quickly fix such problems, when they are brought
to my attention.

This was a real problem in portmaster, but problems with ports that
install files in places that don't differ for different flavors will
continue to cause the error message reported as an assumed portmaster
bug multiple times in the last few days.

Whenever the error message indicates that files are installed in the
same place, the problem is in the port, not in portmaster.
