>Release:        FreeBSD 4.2-20010214-STABLE i386
>Organization:
>Environment:

	Nothing special except the Release mentioned above.

>Description:

	Ports with long names get trimmed in the output of "pkg_version -v"
  if the port name is over 31 characters in length.  For example the port
  "linux-netscape-navigator-4.76" gets trimmed to "linux-netscape-navigator-4"

>How-To-Repeat:

	If you have ports with long names installed just run "pkg_version -v"

>Fix:

	Modify the pkg_version file.  Specifically change the format
  "STDOUT_VERBOSE" to allow for more characters for the port name.  I
  don't have the latest version, but the format is defined at the end of
  the file near line 448.
