We do not use variants whose names begin with "no" anymore. We did that before 
MacPorts 2.0, because the old flat registry could only remember enabled 
variants, not disabled variants. But the new sqlite registry, which is the only 
registry format used with MacPorts 2.0 and later, remembers both. Any variants 
you find that are still named with a "no" prefix are relics and should be 
renamed / converted.

sudo port install example +no_foo

They should disable a foo variant:

sudo port install example -foo
