I have worked around this problem by editing the Portfile to a) manually substitute the original value of version into the distname, and b) changing the underscore in the version to a dash ('-'). I suspect that something in the registry lookup is scanning for the ""_${revision}"" that's appended to the port version, but it is scanning forward for the underscore starting at the beginning of the string instead of scanning backward from the end.",defect,closed,Normal,MacPorts 2.0.0,base,1.9.2,fixed,registry version,,
