>Description:
	On a current ports checkout with a freshly installed portsearch,
	the command portsearch -u hangs. More precisely it hangs on
	make -C /usr/ports/archivers/py-librtfcomp -f /usr/local/share/portsearch/Makefile -f /usr/ports/archivers/py-librtfcomp/Makefile show-plist

	The reason is, that PLIST is empty for this port. However, while the
	empty string is not the name of an existing file, [ -f ] still returns
	zero. Quoting the argument of -f fixes the problem.

>How-To-Repeat:
	install ports-mgmt/portsearch, then make index, then portsearch -u
>Fix:

	Put the following patch in a newly created files subdirectory
	and bump PORTREVISION. Alternatively, fix upstream (as maintainer
	is also upstream).
