Assuming you have an updated ports collection, it should work fine It
does on my system.

I would recommend that you update your ports again and then run
'portmanager -u -f -y -l' and see if that fixes the problem. At the very
least, a log file will  be created '/var/log/portmanager.log' that might
help track down the problem.
