     134=== When I run `port list installed` I see the identical versions of some ports installed, why? ===
     135Using `port list installed` will give confusing results as the 'list' command bases its version information only on what is the currently-available version; so if you have port '''foo''' installed at versions 1 and 2 (with 2 being the current version available), `list installed` will only show '''foo''' at version 2, twice.

     137Instead, use `port installed` which will show the version which is actually installed.
