Hans,

I'm curious if you've had a chance to try that fix, as I'd like to commit
the new version sometime soon.

Also, in re-reading your message it occurs to me that one of the problems
with what you did previously is that you specified just 'howl' as the second
argument to -o, and that isn't enough. You either need to specify net/howl
ala portupgrade, or howl-1.0.0_1 (i.e., the installed port name from
/var/db/pkg).

hth,

Doug
