Ok, so I see that pycryptodome is a fork of pycrypto.
There are currently several ports that depend on pycrypto:
And a few that depend on pycryptodome:
First question: do we need both in MacPorts? It is inconvenient to have conflicting ports. Could we remove one and switch all ports to depend on the other?
If we need to keep pycrypto, the port should be renamed from py-crypto to py-pycrypto. py-crypto was added in the early days of MacPorts before we had decided that all python ports should be named with the "py-" prefix followed by the upstream project name, even if that project name begins with "py".
If we need to keep pycryptodome, it looks like it can be installed two different ways: one that conflicts with pycrypto (this is apparently what we have now) and one that doesn't. Could we switch to the second installation method to avoid the conflict?
If we need to keep both ports and keep them conflicting, then we should modify all ports that depend on either of them so that either of them could be used (i.e. use a
path:
dependency rather thanport:
) and the ports should be marked as being conflicting.
