Comment (by maehne):
As ticket #35395 explained, the port xdelta1 was primarily motivated by
tools, which still relied on the xdelta1 output format such as
[https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/pristine-tar pristine-tar]. It seems that
since pristine-tar 1.35, which was only released this year, it is finally
possible to use xdelta3 instead of this obsolete port. I agree that you
can mark this port as obsolete. Though, it would be nice to keep it in
MacPorts as long as glib1 is still available and working through MacPorts.
