Description
If I have a local repository set up and I run 'port list gimp2' I see something like this:
$ port list gimp2 gimp2 @2.6.7 graphics/gimp2 gimp2 @2.6.7 graphics/gimp2
It would be nice if it showed which repository each port was associated with. Further, when I do a 'port install gimp2' it should say which port it's working with.

I agree this would be nice for developers - not sure how many "normal" users have multiple repos.
Also note that this will increase the output a lot depending on how it is implemented - especially if it is used when "all" is given.
Examples:
ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop 1 file:///Volumes/Projects/OtherSoftware/mports.local.testing/net/ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop 2 file:///Volumes/Projects/OtherSoftware/macports-trunk/dports/net/ntop
ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop [1] ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop [2] 0: file:///Volumes/Projects/OtherSoftware/mports.local/net/ntop 1: file:///Volumes/Projects/OtherSoftware/mports.local.testing/net/ntop 2: file:///Volumes/Projects/OtherSoftware/macports-trunk/dports/net/ntop

I changed to only show extra info if used with -v; the * indicates what which port will be used.
$ sudo port list ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop $ sudo port -v list ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop [1]* ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop [2] 0:file:///Users/kurthindenburg/macports/macports-khindenburg/ports/ 1:file:///Users/kurthindenburg/macports/mports.local.testing 2:file:///Users/kurthindenburg/macports/macports-trunk/dports

Given that the output of port list has nothing to do with the user's installation, it is port installed that could use the enhancement. See the FAQ on this.

I'm not sure I agree that 'port list' shouldn't have this when -v given.
The original ticket was for better output explaining where each of the Portfile was located and which would be installed if the user installs it.
% port list ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop ntop @5.0.1 net/ntop % port installed ntop None of the specified ports are installed.

Yeah, this has nothing to do with port installed.
