So I deleted them all and then reinstalled them.  It worked, though it
seems that it could have been unnecessary.  What exactly is the SAT
solver?  On my build machine, I upgraded a whole pile of packages
depending on libxml2 and libxslt in place using portmaster, and I didn't
have to do a wholesale deletion of packages first.  So it seems likely
to me that there must exist a sequence of package deletions and
upgrades that could have worked on my client machines without deleting
everything first.                                            -- George
