Have you tested what happens if a user has "DisTract" installed and  
then you update the port to a new version when it's called "distract"  
and the user needs to upgrade? Does "port outdated" consider  
"DisTract" and "distract" to be the same thing -- does it properly  
suggest the new version? Does the upgrade work properly?

Probably when the port name and directory name do not match, it's  
better to change the directory name rather than the port name.  
Perhaps the lint message should be changed to suggest that.
