on a specific machine, everytime i selfupdate macports, it detects correctly

don’t know if it’s my fault or some stale file around or else? am i supposed to
open a ticket on trac or is it a trivial thing?

It's doing exactly what you told it to do with -f.
Also note:
-s is a NOP on selfupdate, since it (unfortunately) always builds from
source.
-p is probably a NOP, since AFAIK, selfupdate is treated as a single
operation.
