To clarify, the fact that "port lint" has something to say doesn't automatically mean there's a bug in the portfile. It could instead mean there is a bug in lint.

In this case, however, lint is right and something should be done to the port. The least intrusive thing to do is to move the port to the correct directory, and keep the port name as it is.

DPORTS=http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/trunk/dports
svn mv $DPORTS/{graphics/exiftool,perl/p5-image-exiftool}

So that'd be a bug.

There's somthing strange:

but this port is in graphics/exiftool! This is really misleading.
Is this a bug?
