Comment:

 We have not repaired our database index, in fact, we don't even have the
 database index, because the index is generated by the client. We only have
 the Portfiles, and those have not been changed.

 What seem to be typos in the version numbers are actually appended zeroes
 to convert the version number to a different format. E.g. if you look at
 the contents of `port file p5-locale-gettext` it will tell you the correct
 (CPAN) version number 1.05, which is converted to 1.50 by the perl5
 portgroup (source:trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group/perl5-1.0.tcl,
 proc perl5_convert_version). The same applies to p5-getopt-long.
 Typos in those Portfiles would be uncommon, because a large part of this
 info is automatically generated from CPAN by a script:
 source:contrib/cpan2port/cpan2port.

 As the problem has apparently been resolved, I'm closing this ticket. Feel
 free to re-open if you deem the problem unfixed.
