Is there a best practice for what to do with pkgng when ports maintainers randomly rename ports? (E.g. mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin being moved to mail/spamassassin a few days ago without notice or warning or documentation in UPDATING.) Prior to pkgng, we used to use pkg_replace for this. portmaster also has an option for it. But pkgng seems to assume that never happens which is (unfortunately) not a valid assumption. Thanks for any advice!help
