A while back I aborted a recursive update (bad idea, I know now) and

whether to re-install a port. Now, whenever I use portmaster -a, it
re-installs py26-imaging, py26-reportlab and py26-xml.
Every time.
Correction: every time any other port is upgraded. If all ports are
reported as up to date, the three python ports are not re-installed.
But if any port is upgraded, the re-install occurs, even if the upgraded
port has no dependency relationship with any of the three python ports.
And it's a re-installation, not an upgrade.
I've tried manually uninstalling and then reinstalling these ports, but
portmaster still thinks they always need to re-installed . So the
manual un-/re-install apparently doesn't fix whatever info it's looking
at.
I checked the portmaster manpage, but didn't find anything that tells me
how to fix my problem. I also took a quick look at the portmaster
sourcecode but nothing jumped out at me.
Any ideas? It's probably something obvious, but I'm missing it.
