 Upgrading from mecab 0.98_0 to 0.98_1 is problematic:

 The following installed ports are outdated:

 Looks like mecab now depends on mecab, and mecab-base now provides files
 that used to be provided by mecab. So the mecab-base port should use the
 "[comment:ticket:28865:3 deactivate hack]" to deactivate the installed
 mecab port before activating.
