Forcing upgrade of port

[Jeffery Fernandez]

I am trying to upgrade phpMyAdmin to the latest release 2.6.1-pl2  which 
has a few bugs fixed (One of them  being critical for my usage).

I have updated the ports tree with cvsup but it has not picked up the 
newer release (or maybe its not time to be updated in the ports tree.. 
not sure). So how do I go about updating my phpMyAdmin port to the 
latest release ? Is it just a matter of editing the "MakeFile" under 
"/usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin" with the proper release number before 
"make install clean" ? Any suggestions welcome.

cheers,
Jeffery
