You can use "FORCE_UPDATE=Yes" on the make command line.
It's described in bsd.port.mk(5),
FORCE_UPDATE User settings. If set to `Yes', the update target will al-
ways update an installed package, as soon as its signature
differs, and all dependencies that install packages will
also force an update. If set to `hard', the update target
will also update installed packages even when the signature
did not change.
This can also be set in /etc/mk.conf if you always want to do it.
