a little confuse with case-sensitive name ports and multiple ports with some name
Hello maillist!
I have two examples of ports with which arises some complexities by operation
with pkg_add and argument "-r".
One of ports is "security/keepassx". His name is registered in lowercase,
however at installation in/var/db/pkg is registered as KeepAssX. If to try to
install port with pkg_add -r keepassx it will be fail and it will be correct
with pkg_add -r KeepAssX. Probably it is an error in naming of port?
One more problem with port - deco. It is present at two locations:
% cat /usr/ports/{archivers,misc}/deco/pkg-descr
Deco is a Un*x script able to extract various archive file formats.
Supported archive formats: 7z, ace, ar, arc, arj, bz2, cab, cpio, deb,
flac, gz, jar, lha, lzma, lzo, rar, rpm, tar, zip, zoo.
WWW: http://hartlich.com/deco/
A clone of Norton Commander for Unix. Text-based,
full featured file manager intuitive interface.
WWW: http://deco.sourceforge.net/
Whether there is a way to specify to what category to me it is required to
download package of "deco"?
whereis -sq deco
/usr/ports/archivers/deco - its archivers
By command pkg_add -r deco - I've receive in the system fine NC-clone, but not
the archivers.
When number of port with equal name will be increase - expected results may
can not coincide with result pkg_add, and case-sensitive naming port make
works a bit difficult .

Do you mean pkg_add -r deco-N.M (in my example?)
% pkg_add -r deco-3.9_4

Anyway, its not protect in situation with equal name and equal version of
diffrent ports.

Ok, this may be solution. BTW, portinstall still not in FreeBSD base system ;)

And i forget to say for one else problem with {archivers,mis}/deco:
both of them produced one binary file in /usr/local/bin/deco.
cd /usr/ports/archivers/deco
make install
...
(i have deco archivers)
pkg_add -r deco

OK, that's seriously annoying. That can't possibly be by design
By the way, please don't top-post

It is because misc/deco is not marked as having a conflict with
archivers/deco, but archivers/deco does have a conflict with misc/deco
recorded. If you were to install misc/deco before archivers/deco the
situation would become obvious.
One of the two should probably change their pkgname so that pkg_add -r
can properly find it. Right now pkg_add appears to get misc/deco, even
if you want archivers/deco.
Opening a PR for both these is likely the next best step.
