In a Portfile, you should always specify the applicable version
number(s) for the license (if different versions exist), and leave off
the version number if any version of the license can apply. The
distributable script expects this.

The formatting of the conflict list in the script doesn't have anything
to do with that of the portfile license field though.

That means you should write Foo-1 rather than Foo-1.0.

Yes.
