Look good, except that you can't do this for ports that add something
extra after the portname. Like rhythmbox-devel and libgda2. 
In the libgda2 case the port might be named libgda2. But on the ftp
server its in libgda. Though for example ORBit2 doesn't have this
problem because it is in the ORBit2 directory on the ftp server.

I hope its clear what I'm trying to tell.
