Hi, I hope you had a good time!

I wouldn't know. I don't use portmaster myself. Have you tried to get in 
touch with portmaster's maintainer and see whether he has any clues?

I certainly do, although by no means I can test all official, 
pseudo-official, and non-official update methods out there.

I have a live openfire environment (logs, config) which I test upon 
upgrade. Make deinstall/install or reinstall indeed works fine here.

I have absolutely no idea who created that symlink, but I would assume 
it's not the port itself.

I would think both me and portmaster's maintainer would benefit from a
full portmaster log including the commands you type.
