Yes, we could change the dependency from the dependency file to a name-version dependency like in qt4 ... but this would still end in a fatal error:
- User attempts to upgrade kdebase 3.5.7 to 3.5.8 - kdebase depends on kdelibs>=3.5.8, ports.mk displays error message ---> Upgrade fails. The error message would be more useful to most users who run into this than the compile-time error they are getting now though, so I guess it is still a good idea. However, I would be interested in what circumstances a "portupgrade -a" would skip kdelibs, but subsequently try to upgrade kdebase. If working properly, portupgrade should never do this except when specifically invoked as 'portupgrade kdebase'. Even "portupgrade kdebase kdelibs", "portupgrade kde\*" or "portupgrade -r arts" or anything else imaginable, except specifically updating kdebase only, should not result in an attempt to upgrade kdebase if kdelibs could not be successfully upgraded beforehand.
