--- Comment #1 from Baptiste Daroussin <bapt@FreeBSD.org> ---
I understand this is strange, but this is reality, in the ports tree what is
unique is the package name, not the package category/portname

many things can lead to multiple results on a query on a category:
- flavors (not the case it your example)
- packages belonging to multiple categories, fr-libreoffice will correspond to
those following patterns:
   * french/libreoffice
   * editors/libreoffice

beside recommending to only rely on names and not origin and/or categories to
query precisely packages.
