As I read the documentation on the "revision" keyword it should be used
only if everyone who has an existing install should upgrade. I'll leave
that decision to people with more authority than me. Can't change the
version because that depends on the source version.
It surely does affect all those other ports, for people who would want
dbus support. For me, that affects only HPLIP, which uses py26.
I don't know if this will build without having the dbus port installed. It
seems to me that most people would not want to install dbus, so perhaps
the best approach would be to make this a variant (like +gui, perhaps call
it +dbus). In any case, the sole difference between the existing
py26-pyqt4 and the proposed new version is that it is built from the x11
tree rather than the mac tree at the source. (The mac tree does not have
the dbus module; the x11 tree does.) All the patches remain the same.
Thanks for taking a look.
