I wrote these instructions:

https://trac.macports.org/wiki/PortfileRecipes#replaced-by

There are also these similar instructions by Marko Käning:

http://guide.macports.org/chunked/development.practices.html#development.practices.rename-replace-port

Finally, when Markus Weissmann renamed a lot of his ports, he created the

about.
