livecheck gives wrong message if regex doesn't match

[ryandesign@…]

If the livecheck regex doesn't match, it says the software seems to have been updated to version "0". This portfile:

PortSystem              1.0
name                    foo
version                 1.0

livecheck.check         regex
livecheck.url           http://www.macports.org
livecheck.regex         foobar

Gives this output in MacPorts built from trunk r34550:

$ port livecheck
foo seems to have been updated (port version: 1.0, new version: 0)
$

Running in MacPorts 1.6.0 I get this better message:

$ sudo port livecheck
Error: cannot check if foo was updated (regex didn't match)
$

My guess is this problem was introduced with r34331 so I'm assigning the ticket to Rainer.

Thanks for the report, fixed in r34717.
