I have run into problems with portmaster. The problem is that it doesn't

them.
I think a dependency like:
latex:${PORTSDIR}/print/teTeX-base
shouldn't cause portmaster to install teTeX-base. Not if a latex
binary is already available.
Portmaster doesn't handle dependencies that way, it relies on the port
authors to register CONFLICTS. If you have installed a port that
installs a latex binary it and teTeX-base should have CONFLICTS
registered against each other.
So evidently my list of CONFLICTS is not complete.
