Presumably it's due to version mismatches. If you are using release
packages then  portupgrade -aPP only works well with the ports tree
snapshot on the install disk. If you are using STABLE packages then
there's a lag  between the port and the packages, the more frequently
you update the less likely you are to get matching packages.
