The reason of that I had to add that for portmaster only is: The
portmaster has a bug with MOVED stuff for not able to do
gnome-keyring-manager -> seahorse. It's already fixed in current version
of portmaster, but I rather to keep in there to be foolproof in case if
users still have old portmaster. You can either do it by manual by
pkg_deinstall or let portupgrade to take care of that by read in MOVED,
they are same.
