yes nothing pkg can do about this, those are 3 differents packages from pkg's standpoint (different name), this a an upgradability issue from ports with an impossible choice to solve by the solver (without adding some intelligence for it to understand maybe the name is being quite close so I could consider them as maybe upgrade which would be very very fragile) so my take on this one is talk to the maintainer so they thing about upgradability rather than having every single versions available in ports and causing headache to sat solvers.
