Db4.8 is being pulled in

For some reason databases/db48 gets pulled into my active ports tree. There isn't anything using it since I have moved everything up to db6. What is also interesting is that portmaster insists in re-install db48 when I run portmaster -a

This happens every time I run portmaster -a.

Code: 
Re-install db48-4.8.30.0_2

Here is the message that I get from portmaster.

Code: 
===>>> Starting build for ports that need updating <<<===

===>>> Launching child to install databases/db48

===>>> All >> databases/db48 (1/42)

===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/databases/db48

===>>> Starting check for build dependencies

===>>> All >> databases/db48 (1/42)

===>  Cleaning for db48-4.8.30.0_2
===>   NOTICE:

This port is deprecated; you may wish to reconsider installing it:

Please move to db5 or db6..

It is scheduled to be removed on or after 2014-11-30.

I also get this when it is re-installed.

Code: 
===>>> Starting check of installed ports for available updates

        ===>>> The databases/db42 port moved to databases/db48
        ===>>> Reason: Superseded by databases/db48

        ===>>> The databases/db42 port moved to databases/db48
        ===>>> Reason: Superseded by databases/db48

I can't find anything that might be using this old db48 program. Maybe I am missing something.

I have my make.conf database line like this.

Code: 
WITH_BDB_VER=6

How can I resolve this issue? Thanks.
 
All I get is this.

Code: 
pkg info -r db48
db48-4.8.30.0_2:

When I run portmaster -a I get this.

Code: 
portmaster -a

There doesn't seems to be anything pulling db48 into ports, but for some reason it gets pulled in.

Updated: Added information.
 
I was hoping that db4 would match both db42 and db48. It appears that you have something depending on db42, but pkg info -r db48 will not show that.
 
If everything else is in order, # pkg delete db42-4.2.52_5 might clear that up. IIRC, I think you also need to use the full package version name when deleting said package.

If something does happen to depend on it the system will show it before deleting.

That was indeed the case with the old pkg_delete(1), pkg-delete(8) doesn't need the complete version but it will accept it. Just pkg delete db48.
 
I did remove it earlier. When I run portmaster -a it continues to wanting to pull db48 in. The version of db42 is skipped since it isn't in ports any more.
 
Trying to deinstall the db48 port should show what wants it. If not, deinstall it, then run portmaster --check-depends. There might be a variation of pkg check that would do it, although it sounds like the dependency is not being registered.
