Poudriere handles this for us and it doesn't even need these strict bounds. This hack was probably made for people that are using plain make to update their packages, but that's an unsupported way to do this. I propose to replace the dependency line with just RUN_DEPENDS+= angie>0:www/angie > > And yes, currently the slaves inherit the angie version - that's what > I'm trying to fix here. That's an orthogonal problem. It can be solved in the same way by defining DISTVERSION with ?= in the master port.
