Comment (by stronk7@…):

 Yeah, it's confusing, and their recent move to git
 (https://gitorious.org/freetds/freetds) did it really worse. But if you
 0.92 was never announced and if you look to any other distribution
 (homebrew, centos, debian... you will see that all them are using 0.91.x).

 I think that, for some time... they were putting both 0.91 and 0.92 tgz in
 the stable directory... but then... then moved 0.92 to the current
 directory, keeping stable only for 0.91 (looking a t the dates and
 numbers).

 About the livecheck, I'm sorry I don't know much (sure you are the doctor
 there, lol). Sounds to me that, perhaps, we could "hardcode"  the 0.91 in
 the regexp, so only those are looked (but I really don't know how they are
 supposed to work). Something like: (0\\.91\\.\\d+). Later, if 0.92 becomes
 released... it can be changed again.

 I'm attaching an example that sets the portfile to 0.91.102 and, executing
 the livecheck with it, correctly detects that 0.91.103 is available, so
 seems to work. Again, I've no idea about all that stuff, be warned, lol.

 Thanks and ciao :-)
