I didn't realize that 2.5 had been deleted so then I would have to  
suggest that you try the -o option of portmaster maybe something like

portmaster -o www/squid30 [current installed version from /var/db/pkg]

of course you  will then be upgraded to 3.0 that works fine here.

Have a great Christmas,
