I would prefer ncbi-blast-plus, but I cannot find anything forbidding
nci-blast+ in the handbook, so I would be fine with that (it's not very
specific on this topic):
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/makefile-naming.html

Is there a preferred way of renaming a port? Otherwise I would just
rmport it and re-add it under the new name.
