Bug 294746: ports-mgmt/pkg : pkg version incorrectly marks a port as orphaned
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=294746



--- Description ---
I have ruby-3.3.11,1 installed as dependency for zfstools-0.3.6_2.
pkg version -v -n ruby gives:
ruby-3.3.11,1			   ?   orphaned: lang/ruby33
but lang/ruby33 is a valid port.
This is due to version.c:port_version() calling make -C ../../lang/ruby33
flavors-package-names which returns: ruby33-3.3.11,1 and that doesn't match the
installed port name. 
This behaviour is observed since 2026-04-23 which seems to coincide with the
installation of pkg rev 2.7.4
