--------------------+--------------------------------
 I installed p5-Template-Toolkit, but afterwards doing uninstall leaves
 uninstalled it (or actualy p5.22-template-toolkit) again.

 It seems that if the meta port is not actually installed, het requested
 flag should be transferred to the port it installed instead.
