portupgrade weirdness

Hi,

I seem to be having some difficulty upgrading some of my packages
using portupgrade. Here is an example:

medusa# portversion -vl "<" | grep m4
m4-1.4.1                    <  needs updating (port has 1.4.3)

medusa# portupgrade m4
medusa#
 
Basically it's doing nothing as if it thinks the port is already
updated ? This happens with my php4 port as well as the quagga port
and one or two others. Some update fine, some don't. If I do a
portupgrade -f it installs the same version currently installed and
still doesn't install the new port.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

Nelis
