That got me a lot further, but now the problem is this:

===>>> All >> arj-3.10.22_4 (61/61)

===>>> Currently installed version: arj-3.10.22_4
===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/archivers/arj

===>>> Launching 'make checksum' for archivers/arj in background
===>>> Gathering dependency list for archivers/arj from ports
===>>> Forcing update for /usr/ports/devel/autoconf
===>>> Launching child to reinstall autoconf~pkg-renamed~FEE5-2.69

===>>> All >> arj-3.10.22_4 >> autoconf~pkg-renamed~FEE5-2.69 (62/62)

===>>> No valid installed port, or port directory given
===>>> Try portmaster --help


===>>> Update for autoconf~pkg-renamed~FEE5-2.69 failed
===>>> Aborting update

===>>> Update for arj-3.10.22_4 failed
===>>> Aborting update

I don't understand if this is a problem with arj or autoconf, but I don't
want to delete arj, because
other packages depend on it, and I don't want to delete them.  I tried "pkg
lock arj" and that didn't
seem to do anything, in that portmaster -af still wants to upgrade arj.

Now what?  How do I get portmaster -af to ignore arj?  Or how do I fix
whatever the complaint is
about arj?

Thanks,
Bill Dudley
