It even handles the case where one or more subports use a different version; livecheck stays enabled for them. The case it doesn't handle is where one or more subports use a different version *and* you want to disable livecheck for those subports. An example is php-xdebug, whose php53-xdebug subport will stay at an older version compatible with PHP 5.3, and that version of xdebug won't be updated anymore. The php-1.1 portgroup needs to be modified so that one can simply set "livecheck.type none" in the portfile for such subports. Currently this has no effect because the portgroup sets livecheck.type itself afterward. Possibly just using "default" would fix it.

I may have been mistaken about this problem. In the two ports where I was seeing the problem, the port itself was setting livecheck.type later, so Iive fixed that in those ports.
