Comment (by Peter_Dyballa@…):

 Replying to [comment:1 cal@…]:
 > This looks like an upgrade script gone wrong. `make install` of your
 update to 2.3.0 should have run `depup_portfiles.tcl` which should have
 moved the Portfiles from the registry to the filesystem and replaced the
 Portfiles in the registry database with the names of the directories.
 Apparently that didn't happen for you.

 Yes, there was a bug with two Perl files with a bit special names …
