>Description:
Using portupgrade to (forcefully) upgrade devel/py-distribute makes /usr/local/bin/easy_install disappear.
Uninstalling devel/py-distribute and everything that depends on devel/py-distribute, and subsequently performing a fresh install of devel/py-distribute, i.e. portupgrade -Nfpv devel/py-distribute, makes /usr/local/bin/easy_install reappear, thus making e.g. net-mgmt/net-snmp happy.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Update the ports tree, I was at r320959.
2. cd /usr/ports/devel/py-distribute
3. make install # accept defaults presented by dialog4ports
4. cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade
5. make install # accept defaults presented by dialog4ports
6. /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -fpv devel/py-distribute
7. Notice how tar complains about the missing /usr/local/bin/easy_install file during make package.
