>Description:
As described in ports/184665 I tried to upgrade libxcb-1.9.1 to libxcb-1.9.1_1 but it failed because x11/xcb-proto is needed as build dependency but wasn't installed in the upgrade process. You can see in the attached buildlog (attached in ports/184665) that it was built, installed into staging area and the package was built. But after building the package xcb-proto wasn't installed and it returned to the build of libxcb.
The next build dependency for libxcb (textproc/libxslt/) was installed as expected.
I did some tests after zeisings answer to that PR and it looks like the culprit is the '-p' option for portupgrade.
cd x11/libxcb && make worked
portupgrade libxcb worked
portupgrade -p libxcb failed
And
portupgrade -M NO_STAGE=yes -p libxcb worked too
Maybe you can just remove the '-p' option, because packages are build automagically after staging was introduced.
>How-To-Repeat:
Deinstall x11/xcb-proto
portupgrade -p libxcb
