 Replying to [comment:2 too1@…]:
 > Thanks for the feedback. I've attached a revised Portfile:
 > - ROSE has been stuck at v0.9.5a for several years. The master branch
 would be the best option for our users until we start versioning properly
 (something we plan on doing soon).  Maybe it would be better to have this
 port be rose-devel?

 Whether it's named -devel or not, we really need the port to install a
 fixed version of the software rather than checking out HEAD from git -- we
 need reproducible builds so that MacPorts knows what version a user has
 installed, and so that we can (possibly) distribute binaries. The usual
 way to do this would be to use a date or something as the version, and set
 git.branch to the corresponding commit hash (see libusb-devel for an
 example).

 Other than that, the portfile basically looks reasonable to me...
