Is there some reason we can’t just obsolete the ports
[https://guide.macports.org/chunked/development.practices.html#development
.obsolete-portgroup as usual] (i.e., clearing them and adding the
`obsolete-1.0` portgroup)? Graveyards are meant for storing replaced
subports so that updating the main ports doesn’t trigger spurious build
failures. This doesn’t apply to the Perl ports because they’re implemented
as standalone ports.
