Now that that is sorted, can somebody please fix Mk/bsd.port.mk, because it says, and probably has said for years... # reinstall - Install the results of a build, ignoring = "already installed" flag. And the whole premise of "reinstall" being used as "deinstall reinstall" in the face of "deinstall install" is just silly, either by deleting the reinstall target or making it a composite target of deinstall + = install to not break existing tools / workflows. It's worrisome that such latent fixes are not considered bugs, more so = that the inner workings of bsd.port.mk do not reflect that shift in "expected behaviour" in any way; and even more so that long discussions are = ongoing where non-committers bring up issues and nobody with a commit bit cares = to even ask what could be wrong.
