So I kept that running until this week when there was some breaking change in the macOS 12.3 Python environment.

macOS 12.3 removes /usr/bin/python.

The pip installer wants to see sqlparse==0.2.0 in the virtualenv, which it installs correctly, but for some reason breaks later when it finds a MacPorts-installed version of py27-sqlparse. The solution is to just uninstall this port. How should this conflict best be expressed in the Portfile?

If this failure occurs at build time, use "PortGroup conflicts_build 1.0" and "conflicts_build py27-sqlparse".
