It is not the same. We have tcl/tk and ncftp named with version numbers so they can live side-by-side installed on the same machine. I don't think you're supporting having both aspfilter5 and aspfilter6 living side-by-side installed, are you? > apsfilter was the name I started with.

Thus it would have been more typical of FreeBSD if you had upgraded the aspfilter port to version 6, and cvs rm'ed the aspfilter6 port.
