Well, it would be OK for any users of the old ports to keep using them.
Instead of adding these empty pseudoports with a fake pre-configure ?
Just wanted to avoid new installations of the legacy versions, but OK.
I'll revert the commit, so you can make a real decision about RPM...

PS. The example is wrong. xz-devel (4.999) was "upgraded" to xz (5.0)
and then xz-devel went onwards to 5.1alpha versions instead...
That is the very nature of the -devel ports, since you don't have
any "testing" area. But I've removed most of the -devel ports now.
