Comment(by msavory@…):

 Unfortunately, I still have no time for at least another 2 weeks. Feel
 free to pick up and run in any direction....

 scapy declared its dependencies as

 Library Dependencies: python24, py-readline, py-pylibpcap, py-libdnet, py-
 crypto, py-gnuplot, py-pyx, graphviz

 My thoughts on the best path was to just build a new scapy2 port that
 depends on
 python25
 py25-readline
 py25-pylibpcap
 py25-libdnet
 py25-crypto
 py25-gnuplot
 py25-pyx
 py25-pygraphviz

 and used the pyton port group code to install as a framework.

 It seem at the moment, python on Macports has no generic way to manage the
 different Python versions in any dynamic way.

 Philippe changed from scapy1.x to scapy2.x when he introduced the python
 2.5 dependency, it just seems like we need to follow suit.

 Then we need to get this page updated to cover Leopard and that we are not
