I have a question about portupgrade. I have been running portupgrade -ai on my workstation, and several upgrades failed. I traced all the failures to one of two things; a security problem or XML-Parser was missing. However, XML-Parser was installed. pkgdb -F returned with no complaints and pkg-info shows that XML-Parser was installed.

I deinstalled and reinstalled the p5-XML-Parser port, and now all the ports that failed because of that port are upgrading properly (gnome-desktop, gnome-menus, metacity, ggv, gnome-themes, gedit, gdm, gal2, filerolller, eog, nautilus-cd-burner, evolution-data-server, evolution, gnome-panel)

What is the cause of this? Is there an easier way to correct the problem? Re- register the port? (If so, how do you do that?)
