Comment(by fclaire@…):

 As I wrote in my answer to ryandesign ->
 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/26040#comment:2 the Xymon server is
 including the client part to report status to itself. This is how this
 software works and how the server installs itself. I don't think it's
 easilly possible to completely separate the server and client parts (I'd
 like to stay as close as possible to how it is installed on other unix-
 like systems and keep the client and server directories under
 ${prefix}/lib/xymon/).

 The fact the server includes the client part was the main motivation to do
 a single port simply named "xymon" with 2 variants as it was submitted in
 ticket #26040.

 Is there a way to inform the user he shouldn't install the xymon client
 port on a machine where the xymon server is installed ? For me this error
 message would be enough to prevent xymon-server and xymon ports installed
 together on the same machine (but maybe you'll tell me there's always
 someone to do 'port -f').
