I'd be very happy if I could: - fetch the distfiles, even if I have a conflicting port installed - be able to use portmaster -o to switch from one port to an other one that conflicts with it. - be able to at least compile a port (eg. for testing) without having to de-install the current one.I'm all in favor of restoring the old behavior with a switch available to turn on the new one.
+1
Although a big fat warning message at fetch or build phase when operating on
a port with conflicts wouldn't go amiss.
Cheers,
