Yes, I just did that. Unfortunately I had not completed all my
modifications by the time the portindex was regenerated, so I
wanted to notify users of the issue.
but depends on xorg-renderproto? Or else to have some kind of
"superseding" mechanism?
Making render depend on xorg-renderproto will not work: the
dependency xorg-renderproto would be built first before render
would be updated to the no-files version. You would be guaranteed
to get exactly the conflict message we're trying to avoid.
Making xorg-renderproto depend on render might work. I could change
the render port again to not issue the message I added, advising
users to uninstall it, but instead let it sit around empty for
awhile until everyone has upgraded. Then later I can increase the
revision and re-add that message. I don't know if this is better
than what I did; it's all a bit messy. If someone feels strongly
about this they can change things. For now, I'm going to bed. :)
I just did this (making xorg-renderproto depend on render) since the
upgrade was not going smoothly without this.
