No, MOVED is sufficient. We never send ports@ or ports-announce@ for
renamed origins. Even UPDATING is not conventional in this case.

I do agree with this change and wish we did similar on all other leaf
application ports. p5-* py-* rubygem-* to me mean very specifically that
they are libraries/dependencies/plugins/modules. Leaf applications
having a lang- qualifier on them is very confusing as upstreams do not
use it and they look like they are libraries, ie, p5-Mail-SpamAssassin
looks like something you could include in a perl script to use
spamassassin, not spamassassin itself.

If this port includes both it should be split up into a library and the
leaf application.
