Comment:

 The port lcov @1.14 installs the right version, but it identifies itself
 as the wrong version.

 This sounds like the upstream bug report filed here:

 https://github.com/linux-test-project/lcov/issues/120

 It sounds like the problem is that we are using the automatically-
 generated tarball whereas we should be using the release tarball. When
 updating the port to 1.15, Kimura should add `github.tarball_from
 releases` to the Portfile to fix this.
