Portmaster binary package upgrade question

Hi folks,

I'm in the midst of building a system to use Tinderbox and FreeBSD jails
to keep them up to date as new port updates are committed to the tree.

I created some meta-ports in /usr/ports/local/misc to record
dependencies and be able to install one top-level port that pulls in all
other required ports.

I'm now testing the ability to run an upgrade with portmaster once a new
package set is built, and I'm using this command:

pkgtester# env INDEXDIR=/tmp
MASTER_SITE_INDEX=http://pkgbuilder.shn.prv/tb/packages/8.2-FreeBSD-SHN-201202101009/Latest/
PACKAGESITE=http://pkgbuilder.shn.prv/tb/packages/8.2-FreeBSD-SHN-201202101009/Latest/
portmaster -PP -v --update-if-newer --index-only server-web\*

===>>> Currently installed version: server-web-0.201202071358
===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/local/misc/server-web

===>>> Gathering dependency list for local/misc/server-web from INDEX-8
===>>> Starting dependency check
===>>> Checking dependency: www/apache22

===>>> Update failed
===>>> Aborting update

Terminated
pkgtester#

As you can see, there's not a lot to go on.  My INDEX-8 file has my
local ports included in it, so I think the dependency list is OK:

pkgtester# grep ^server-web INDEX-8 | cut -f1 -d\|
server-web-0.201202101009

If I change the package name above from server-web\* to apache\*, it
works fine, so it seems to be an issue with my local meta-ports.

Does anyone have an idea where to look to troubleshoot the problem?

Thank you,
Greg
