Comment:

 Suggest to keep just "rpm", and remove all others. Then the default port
 can be upgraded, if/when there is such a use case...

 Delete these ports:
 * rpm52
 * rpm53
 * rpm54
 * db51
 * db52
 * db53

 And then add a rpm-devel to track the latest CVS if wanted, and maybe keep
 db60 around even if it has license issues (AGPL-3) ?

 '''No need for rpm_select.'''


 ----
 PS. The `port rpm` and `port dpkg` commands have been removed from
 MacPorts, as per r123004, in favor of the official .tbz2.
