Do you mean pkg_add -r deco-N.M (in my example?)
% pkg_add -r deco-3.9_4
Error: FTP Unable to get

current/Latest/deco-3.9_4.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no

lrwxr-xr-x 1 1006 1006 21 Feb 22 01:30 deco.tbz -> ../All/deco-3.9_4.tbz
- on ftp servers packages without version as i see.
Anyway, its not protect in situation with equal name and equal version of
diffrent ports.
