I propose the following change VVVV

These changes require that any port which depends on any poppler* port 
must be upgraded. For each poppler* port installed:
<I don't use portmaster>
or
# portupgrade -rf <poppler-port-name>

You can see what would happen first with:
# portupgrade -rfn <poppler-port-name>

----------------

Unless I'm missing something, portupgrade -a is completely unnecessary 
and in my case would be dangerous.
