This is weird! A program that is supposed to show the *status* of
installed ports should never arbitrarily *remove* ports.

I agree that is not clear why it is removing ports without warning.

Well, we don't actually know that. I suspect that there was a warning,
but it went to stdout and was eaten by "|grep OLD". Portmanger then
waited for a y/n response for 5 minutes, and went with the default of
deleting the port.
