uninstall should properly report versions when needed

[ray@…]

I tried the following:

sh-2.05b# port uninstall perl5.8 5.8.7_0
--->  The following versons of perl5.8 are currently installed:
--->    perl5.8 5.8.7_0 (active)
--->    perl5.8 5.8.8_0+darwin_8
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port uninstall failed: Registry error: Please
specify the full version as recorded in the port registry.
sh-2.05b# port uninstall perl5.8 5.8.8_0+darwin_8
--->  The following versons of perl5.8 are currently installed:
--->    perl5.8 5.8.7_0 (active)
--->    perl5.8 5.8.8_0+darwin_8
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port uninstall failed: Registry error: Please
specify the full version as recorded in the port registry.
sh-2.05b# 

It did not occur to me to use the syntax for versions that one sees in the "port installed" output.

This should have said:

sh-2.05b# port uninstall perl5.8
--->  The following versons of perl5.8 are currently installed:
--->    perl5.8 @5.8.7_0 (active)
--->    perl5.8 @5.8.8_0+darwin_8
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port uninstall failed: Registry error: Please specify the full version as recorded in the port registry.
sh-2.05b#

Then it would have been clear what was needed.

It looks like this has already been fixed in CVS.
