Comment (by egall@…):

 Replying to [comment:26 xeron.oskom@…]:
 > Support of deb packages was removed in r123004, but I still want to see
 updated version of dpkg (I use dpkg-source for debian packaging). I've
 attached the latest version of patch (it uses perl portgroup now for
 dependencies resolving). WDYT? May be we could drop some patches because
 we don't need to support "port dpkg" now?

 The change removing `port dpkg` from base hasn't been part of an official
 release yet, and I would kind of like to see it added back before 2.4 (the
 existence of the `port dpkg` command was one of the reasons I felt like
 working on this update in the first place, after all...)

 However, if the change removing `port dpkg` does actually get released,
 I'm pretty sure the only part of my Portfile patch that would need to be
 changed would be that the line I added to the description (saying the port
 enables the use of the `port dpkg` command) would have to be removed.
 Other than that, pretty much everything else is unaffected by its removal,
 at least as far as I can tell...

 > Attachment dpkg_1.16.15.patch​ added

 This is against the original Portfile currently in trunk, I take it? It's
 getting kind of hard to keep track of all of these patches; I think I had
 some other additional changes that I had been meaning to submit, as
 well... the longer this takes, the messier the merge could end up being...
