Hello Alex,

First of all thank you for taking the time to report this and using
FreeBSD, we really appriciate the time and effort taken.

However, pkg_version has the -I option which does the following:

     -I      Use only the index file for determining if a package is out of
             date.  This is much faster than using the version number from a
             port's Makefile, at the expense of potentially giving an incor-
             rect result if the index file is out of date.


at least on my rather recent 6-STABLE :-)

When I run pkg_version -vIL= i get the response that one would
expect. Are you sure you are running a recent version of the
application? Can you share some details with us to see what the
problem might be?

Thanks!

Cheers
remko
