[febeling@…]

Under certain conditions it is possible to get multiple versions of the same port be active. I this situatiuon it is no longer possible to deactivate or uninstall, even when specifiying the full name @version_rev string.

Please note that the port in question uses the unusual version number 0.0.

Confirmed. We do not handle ports whose version equals the number 0 ("0", "0.0", "0.00", etc.) properly. This is a problem with the registry. I'm looking into it.

Fixed in r41854, and I don't think I broke anything else in the process. :)
