We do not use variants whose names begin with "no" anymore. We did that before MacPorts 2.0, because the old flat registry could only remember enabled variants, not disabled variants. But the new sqlite registry, which is the only registry format used with MacPorts 2.0 and later, remembers both. Any variants you find that are still named with a "no" prefix are relics and should be renamed / converted.
From the user's perspective, instead of enabling a no_foo variant:
sudo port install example +no_foo
They should disable a foo variant:
sudo port install example -foo
