HOLD_PKGS not working?

[Dave Byrne]

I got some ideas from pkg_glob(1) and tried:

 HOLD_PKGS = [
    '*linux*',
    'bsdpan-*',
    'jdk*',
  ]

-and-

 HOLD_PKGS = [
    'java/linux-sun-jdk*'
    'emulators/linux_base*',
    'bsdpan-*',
    'jdk*',
  ]

-and-

HOLD_PKGS = [
    'java/linux-sun-jdk',
    'emulators/linux_base',
    'bsdpan-*',
    'jdk*',
  ]

However none of the above are masking linux_base and linux-sun-jdk from
portversion.

any other ideas?

Thanks
Dave
