 * From this journey into MacPorts internals, we know that `registry_active` will return a list, but in our case it will always only contain one element. We can strip the outer list using `[lindex $returnval_of_registry_active 0]`.
 * Because `registry_active` will raise an error if the port requested is not active, we need to wrap it in a catch statement. If catch returns 0 (i.e., no error occured), we know the port in question is active.
 * In the example above, we retrieve the version of `kerberos5` (from index 1) and check using `vercmp` whether it is lower than 1.11. If it is, we need to deactivate the `kerberos5` port. Your case might differ here, because you might have to check revision and/or epoch.
-* To deactivate the offending port, we can use `registry_deactivate_composite` (and you can probably guess that this is an alias, too, and where you can find it). `registry_deactivate_composite $name "" $options` is a shorthand for `registry_deactivate $name "" "" 0 $options` and will deactivate the port indicated by `$name`. The second argument is a version number, which we can leave empty in this case. If we would normally try to deactivate `kerberos5` it might fail, because other ports might still depend on `kerberos5` being present. Since we know that it will be reinstalled soon anyway, we can just force deactivation without paying respect to the dependent ports (which we do by passing `[list ports_nodepcheck 1]` as `$options` argument.
