I just told MacPorts to upgrade Subversion. As part of doing this, it decided to upgrade openssl. However, there was no difference in version string!

Any idea why it decided to do this?

Ok, looking further it seems zlib and apr also did this.

So for some reason, `sudo port upgrade -uf subversion` decided to reinstall *all* dependencies, as near as I can tell.

Any ideas what's going on?

Yes -- you told it to. That's what "-f" does. It forces the reinstall, even if MacPorts doesn't think it needs to.

If you just want to reinstall Subversion and not its dependencies, also use the "-n" flag.
