What should happen when the Port field contains the name of a subport? Open the portdir which contains the subport.
What I was trying to point out is that Trac does not currently have that information. It does not know that some ports are subports, and what their portdirs are.
One could also take into account that the string entered into the port edit field might be a regular expression (e.g. {{{kmymoney4(-devel)}}}) which would require generating more than one link per expression. [Well, I am aware of that this is probably a special case not met that often.]
I would consider this a user error, not something we want to support. The Port field should contain port and subport names, not regular expressions. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52707#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
