That seems like a bug in portupgrade (pkgtools.rb is installed as
part of portupgrade) due to, most likely, limited set of rules to
parse uname(1) output. Please file a problem report via send-pr(1).
I can't help myself but look in source; here is the line 982 in
pkgtools.rb (portupgrade 2.0.1_1,1) which fails to parse uname(1)
output ...
980 uname = `uname -rm`.chomp
981
982 if m = /^(((\d+)(?:\.\d+[^.\-]*?)+)-(\w+)(-\S+)?) (\w+)$/.match(uname)
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
minor ^
version required minor
version match
983 OS_RELEASE, OS_REVISION, OS_MAJOR,
984 OS_BRANCH, os_patchlevel, OS_PLATFORM = m[1..-1]
985 OS_PATCHLEVEL = os_patchlevel || ""
(I don't know how close Ruby & Perl regular expressions (regexps) are,
below analysis is according to Perl rules.) Above regex fails, when
there is no minor version since matching of minor version is not
optional. To get past that, regex should be ...
/^(((\d+)(?:\.\d+[^.\-]*?)?)-(\w+)(-\S+)?) (\w+)$/
^
^ optional match
