There were a large number of ports, primarily related to KDE, that were
to be updated. I would have expected poudriere to inform me that a port
was no longer available, perhaps offer me an option to remove said
port, and then proceed to update the remaining ports.

There have been ports in the past that were removed from the ports
system. Poudriere never just 'kicked the bucket' when it encountered
any of them.

I do believe that something should have been mentioned in UPDATING. I
rarely, if ever, read MOVED umless it is mentioned in UPDATING. I read
UPDATING before I ever attempt updating any port(s).
