Component:  ports    |    Version:  2.2.0
 Keywords:  mysql5   |       Port:
---------------------+--------------------------------
 In #39906, it was stated that the mysql5 port is deprecated and users
 should switch to mysql5{1,5,6} or other instead.

 However, many packages depend on port:mysql5 which makes this transition
 impractical for many users. See #39940 for an example.

 I think it would be necessary to switch from port: to file: or lib:
 dependencies, but I am not familiar enough with MacPorts to exactly tell
 what would be the right step to take.
