Comment (by rjvbertin@…):

 I think I have already tried to do something like this on several
 occasions... without  much success. But you're right. Or ... we could just
 see what happens when we push the modifications ;) I say that as a joke,
 but I do feel that certain other port devs have been ignoring my attempts
 at a constructive dialog a bit too much for a bit too long. There's this
 common wisdom that silence signals agreement ;)

 Have you ever (recently) tried to see what happens when you don't use my
 cmake-1.0 PortGroup? That one could theoretically get a version bump to
 avoid issues with Michael. Since I'm not proposing a different cmake port
 that works users can install in place of the other there is no real need
 to replace the current cmake portgroup. As long as the KF5 portgroup
 includes the right one we get all the benefits I introduced there were it
 counts.

 The qmake5 PortGroup has a dual mode, "mine" for qt5-kde, and "his" for
 use with port:qt5. Funnily the situation is the opposite as with cmake
 here: in qt5-kde mode it is less complex than in port:qt5 mode. We could
 test what of "my mode" is really required.

 I've just made the locale_select and clang_selection portgroups optional.
 They'll be used if they're found in the same directory, otherwise the
 features they introduce are simply skipped. That shouldn't cause any
 issues, so I invite you NOT to copy these files in the future.
