>Description:

This is a followup to PR 56958.

The following ports have a hyphen in their version number:

Toni Andjelkovic <toni at soth.at>
  devel/pcsc-lite:
    1.2.0-rc1 => 1.2.0.r1

John R. Shannon <john at johnrshannon.com>
  devel/gdb53-act:
    5.3-act => 5.3

Vivek Khera <khera at kciLink.com>
  mail/postfix-current:
    2.0.14-20030812 => 2.0.14.20030812
    PORTEPOCH => 2

neither pkg_version nor portupgrade see the part of the version
before the last '-', i.e. devel/pcsc-lite is seen as version rc1,
1.3.0-b2 would be regarded as a previous version.

portlint detects this. The patch in PR 56960 too. See also the
FreeBSD Porter's Handbook, 4.2.4 Package Naming Conventions:

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

change the version numbers (and PORTEPOCH) as show above.
