That's just telling you that it can't update that app because the port
doesn't exist anymore. You have several options at that point. If you
want to keep it you can read the portmaster man page about +IGNOREME
files. If you don't need it anymore (and in this case you almost
certainly do not) then you can use 'portmaster -e xphelloworld' to
delete it (or just good old 'pkg_delete -f').
