Description

Currently the openbsd (and freebsd) package providers do not support having non-numeric version information in them. The OS itself does support having non-numeric values, for example:

openjdk6-b20_7

This causes an error when having this package already installed on the system:

warn: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderFreebsd Failed to match line openjdk6-b20_7 Oracle’s Java 6 virtual machine release under the GPL v2

The included patch takes the regex from portupgrade module.
