Use linux_base-debian instead of linux_base?

I've been using portupgrade for ages, but I hadn't thought about using it to
work around the problem.

I've added this to my pkgtools.conf (and the portupgrade port is the current
version):

  ALT_PKGDEP = {
    'linux_base' => 'linux_base-debian'
  }

but it doesn't seem to make a difference.  Do I have to do something to make
portinstall aware of that setting?
